LEVI

My blood is still simmering when I get to Cristiano’s 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 Bill’s men tried to kidnap her, I knew I had a higher calling.

When we dug around and found out what’s been happening to Megan and how she knows Bill, I wished like hell I’d checked her out sooner. Especially when we all sensed she must have been working at the club because she was in trouble.

There’s not a damn thing I can’t 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.

“Baby,” I mutter, moving over to her. I crouch down and plant a kiss on her forehead. “Are you okay?”

“I’m okay.” Her voice is barely audible and shaky.

Cristiano looks at me and I nod, silently confirming I’ve done all I can for the moment.

He knows Megan was married to Hunter Reid, a motherfucker who we’re 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 man—and spy—for 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 we’d still like her to talk to us just to be sure we haven’t missed anything.

“I’m going to make breakfast in a few minutes,” Cristiano says to her. “Do you need anything else before I start?”

“No. Um… I know you’re waiting for me to talk and I should. It’s just difficult.” She looks at each of us, but her gaze settles on me. “I guess by now you probably know some stuff about me.”

The comment doesn’t surprise me. She knows I’m the tech of the group and probably guessed I’m only arriving now because I was checking things out.

“We do,” I confirm, tilting my head to the side. “It would be helpful to hear what you’ve been going through, but only if you can talk about it.”

“I want to. I just don’t know where to start.”

“How about with Hunter?” Cristiano suggests and she looks at him. It’s clear from the weary way she sets the coffee cup down on the table that her dead husband is her least favorite subject.
