Captive of My Mafia Crush
I watch it all, my nerves frayed, refilling Frankie’s glass and then mine when I reach the bottom and find that I need more – want more – want anything that’s going to wipe this fucking night away.
“Fuck!” Nico screams, and I go rigid when he kicks one of the stools on his side of the kitchen counter and sends it skittering across the room, slamming into the wall and knocking a vase off of the table by the door. “Fuck, Chris!” he shouts, his back turned, his fingers sliding through his hair and grabbing the ends of it like he’ll tear it out, like it’s the only action left to him.
“Nico!” Christian snaps, half scolding, half plea to understand.
