Chapter Six
McKenna
The door closes like a final thud, and Iâm scared he wonât come back. I look down at the ring still on my finger and I settle for a moment. He wonât leave me. I just needed a moment to process what his father said. A birthmark a family here had. The had part is what stopped me. Where are they now?
I only know what Dante has told me, and itâs been very little so far. The door opens again and a woman and man enter. Something inside me recognizes them, but I canât place them. Itâs like déjà vu.
âI asked to be alone. Can you please leave?â I say, trying to wipe away the tears from my face with the sheet because I canât reach the tissue box.
âKeni, you donât recognize us?â the woman asks. I look at her again and thatâs when the flash of a memory tumbles through my mind.
âKara, right?â I say her name, and she rushes across the room. The man moves too, but I pull back from him. Something inside me doesnât trust him. She hugs me to her, squeezing me tightly, and I cry out. The door swings open and Danteâs huge body is taking it all up. I didnât realize how big he was before. He almost has to duck to come in through the door, heâs so tall. His shoulders are just as wide. Next to the man who scares me, he is like a giant.
âIâm okay, Dante,â I tell him, but he doesnât leave. He stands to the side of the door, letting it close but not leaving the room. Iâm honestly glad because I donât feel comfortable being alone with this other man. Iâm okay being alone with Kara. She doesnât cause my stomach to feel like Iâm going to throw up like he does.
I take him in as his eyes bounce between Dante and me. He has dark hair that hangs over his forehead. His eyes arenât a soft brown but darker and muddy looking. His body is ripped with muscles but not as big as Dante. I canât place his name like I did Karaâs though, which makes me wonder if I know him or if we were even close.
âYou donât recognize me, baby?â he asks. His accented voice isnât like the others. Or even mine. It hits me then, heâs American.
âIâm sorry, I donât know you.â He advances on me, and I watch as his face changes for a moment. Something sinister passes across it.
âIâm your boyfriend,â he says, and Dante is off the wall and on him instantly.
âNo, youâre not. Iâm her fiancé,â he barks as he lifts the man up. The guyâs legs dangle as he kicks around. I watch as one of his hands leaves Danteâs arm and goes to his back. Dante drops the man and has a gun in his hand before he hits the floor. Kara cries out and cringes back, but I watch fascinated by what Iâm seeing. It doesnât scare me.
