turned off everything and decided on going to bed early tonight. She could be whoever she wanted in her dreams too; it was just the morning light that would ruin that fantasy.
CHAPTER FIVE
Her fucking cousin? Her fucking ‘He’s my best friend” cousin? What the hell? Aiden had paced outside back and forth from his bike to her door before he decided that he’d drive to the wine shop and smoke the emergency cigarettes he had stashed in the compartment of his bike. It had been a long time since he’d felt like he really needed one, but having them nearby was almost like a security thing. The drought was over now and the familiar crinkling sound of the paper was almost a comfort because he knew what came next.
Lighting up and filling his lungs with the smoky nicotine was like a salve to his emotions. He knew he shouldn’t have gotten so close to Lorna, but she was beautiful, sweet, and sexy as all hell. How was he supposed to get one taste of a woman like that and walk away without getting his fill? The problem was the more he was with her the more he wanted. Which is why he was still hanging out with her and filling her pussy every chance he got a week later.
His phone rang, and he wondered if it was Lorna. She made his heart hurt the way she looked at him before he left. The sad smile was so forced, he half way wondered why she felt compelled to try, but in truth he knew. She didn’t think he was coming back, and that thought did cross his mind for a few minutes. He was supposed to find out information that would lead him to find the man he now knew was her favorite cousin. His brothers had to do better with the intelligence. They had no idea that Lorna was the daughter of the biggest mafia boss in this area?
“Hello?” He knew he sounded short, and he really didn’t give a fuck right now.
“What the fuck, dude? You’ve been out there a whole week, and your mark is still up and walking around. This is making us look bad.” The leader of the Devil’s Stepbrothers Motorcycle Club or the Devil’s Bros, which is what the guys all liked to call it for short, wasn’t good at salutations. It was like he never left off when he spoke to you last and was still in the same conversation. His number was always private just like all of his other brothers so when you answered your phone it was a crap shoot on who was going to be on the other line.
“Mav, I’ve been trying to get information from the girl and looking for him during the day.” Aiden knew that was the truth, and he also knew that Mav probably already knew all about it. He’d been trying his best to find the guy, but Lucca was like a ghost. When he’d get information about him and went to the place the man was supposed to be, he’d either just left or hadn’t been there. Asking too many questions would probably get him on the wrong side of a gun, so he was trying to lay low. He knew Lucca was close to the big boss in the area, and although he didn’t have a problem with him, someone was paying big money to have him meet his maker.
“If you don’t get this situation under control, I’ll be sending down someone else. They may be able to do the job better than you. Well if not better, then at least faster.” Mav had something in his mouth, and it sounded like he was frustrated, and there was no way in the world Aiden wanted him to be upset enough to do that.
“I’ll get it done. I’m very close.” Aiden was trying to be convincing, but it was hard. He was in a city he didn’t know well, and he was trying to find a man who was familiar with the lay of the land. It was a hard pill to swallow, but he knew he had just found the way to Lucca. The plan had always been to use her for information, and he’d been okay with that, but now it was starting to feel personal. He hated that, because personal had no business in this type of situation. He had a job to do, and his reputation was on the line. He’d
