My blood is still simmering when I get to Cristianoâs house. I wanted to come from last night when he told me what happened to Megan. But when he tasked Knox and me with finding out why in the ever-loving fuck Billâs men tried to kidnap her, I knew I had a higher calling.
When we dug around and found out whatâs been happening to Megan and how she knows Bill, I wished like hell Iâd checked her out sooner. Especially when we all sensed she must have been working at the club because she was in trouble.
Thereâs not a damn thing I canât find out on a person, so I would have been able to confirm she was in deep shit. Deeper than I know she even realized.
Knox left me a few hours ago to come here while I did a bit more digging around.
I make my way to the living room and find Megan sitting in the armchair. Knox is on her left, stroking her neck while Cristiano hands her a cup of coffee.
Her eyes are red and swollen like little slits on her face. She tries to smile when she sees me, but it looks like it hurts.
âBaby,â I mutter, moving over to her. I crouch down and plant a kiss on her forehead. âAre you okay?â
âIâm okay.â Her voice is barely audible and shaky.
Cristiano looks at me and I nod, silently confirming Iâve done all I can for the moment.
He knows Megan was married to Hunter Reid, a motherfucker who weâre sure was killed by someone in the mob. He also knows the money he gave her went to Bill and everything else I found out is not good by any means.
Hunter was a sort of middle manâand spyâfor a number of organizations, from the Bratva to the Cartel. Some of which were enemies to each other. So no fucking wonder his ass is dead. When things go wrong, men like Hunter are always the first to have a target on their backs.
We found out a lot, but weâd still like her to talk to us just to be sure we havenât missed anything.
âIâm going to make breakfast in a few minutes,â Cristiano says to her. âDo you need anything else before I start?â
âNo. Um⦠I know youâre waiting for me to talk and I should. Itâs just difficult.â She looks at each of us, but her gaze settles on me. âI guess by now you probably know some stuff about me.â
The comment doesnât surprise me. She knows Iâm the tech of the group and probably guessed Iâm only arriving now because I was checking things out.
âWe do,â I confirm, tilting my head to the side. âIt would be helpful to hear what youâve been going through, but only if you can talk about it.â
âI want to. I just donât know where to start.â
âHow about with Hunter?â Cristiano suggests and she looks at him. Itâs clear from the weary way she sets the coffee cup down on the table that her dead husband is her least favorite subject.
