Damn! Back in my home office, I called Donna. She picked up her cell, but was halfway across the city. So I settled back into work, getting paperwork caught up, making a few calls and feeling sorry for myself. At one point I even thought of giving Misty a call, but had the good sense not to go there. Things were working out too well to fuck 'em up that badly.

"Don, your madre's here." Adriano set the bottle down and stood. "Madre, what are you doing here?" "Why wouldn't I be?" Caterina snapped. "I had to see for myself how that bugiarda, that fake pregnancy con artist, still has the nerve to cling to you!" My heart clenched. I gripped the sheets, and the pain in my fingers was nothing compared to the stab in my chest. "Please don't talk about Cassie like that," Adriano said, trying to steady her.

I set my wine glass down without drinking from it and reached for a folder sitting at the edge of my desk, one I’d been putting off dealing with for longer than I probably should have. “There’s something else,” I said. “I want you to start preparing. It’s time I made my way back to the United States. Calderm City, specifically.” The pause this time was longer, and when he spoke again, the surprise in his voice was impossible to hide, however hard he might have tried. “Now?

It looked like he hadn't slept in days. "Beta Chris, are you looking for my brother?" "Why didn't you answer my calls?" We spoke in unison. Hearing the frustration and anger in his tone, I composed myself and smiled lightly. "My phone was off, so I didn't notice. What do you need from me? Oh, right. I just remembered—we still haven't set a date to sever our mate bond." "Fiora, how long are you going to keep being angry with me?"

"A cushy life wouldn't have made me half as strong." I hung up and eyed the file he sent. This was going to stir things up. … Suzy's bump was showing, and the calls from home started piling up. They started out tough, demanding cash. "Amy, if you go through with this, don't bother coming home. We'll pretend you were never our daughter." "Look, if you had even an ounce of decency, you'd cough up thirty thousand dollars. If not, I'll make sure everyone knows you're a total deadbeat and a daughter no one would want!" the voice on the phone snarled.
