After I slept like the dead, I was checked by the doctor and cleared to go home.
Home, AKA Dario’s penthouse.
I wonder how Tyrone reacted when he saw the place.
Probably the same as me, totally overwhelmed.
Earlier, Dario left to go and get his car and my clothes while I had breakfast.
Dario’s a mob boss.
You’d think I’d be running for the hills, but here I am, sitting in the passenger side of his R8 as he drives us home.
Before shit went down, Dario was this perfect prince, and honestly, it bothered me a little. I didn’t feel good enough to be with him.
But now…
I’ve seen his dark side, and in that moment when he killed the men holding me captive, I fell in love with him all over again.
Dario has blood on his hands. He’s not as perfect as I first thought, but instead, he’s perfect for me. He might be rich, and I’m okay with that, but we’re no longer worlds apart, because we’re both from the wrong side of life.
“What are you thinking about?” Dario asks, drawing me out of my thoughts.
Turning my head to look at the handsome man beside me, I admit, “How I fell in love with you all over again.”
Surprise flickers over his face. “Yeah?”
“Yeah.”
He steers the sports car into the basement and brings it to a stop in the designated parking bay.
Killing the engine he turns toward me, and carefully gripping my chin between his thumb and his forefinger, he presses a soft kiss to my mouth.
When he pulls back, he looks at me as if I’m his entire world, and it makes me feel like the luckiest woman alive.
If it weren’t for Dario, I’d be…
I shake my head, and it makes a frown form on his forehead.
“What?” he asks.
“Just memories,” I mutter before I shove the passenger door open.
Climbing out of the R8, I wait for Dario. He throws his arm around my shoulders and pulls me against his side as we walk to the elevator.
As soon as we’re inside, Dario asks, “About the past two days?”
I nod, letting out a sigh.
“Would you like to see a therapist?”
The doors open, and as we step into the penthouse, I say, “No. I’m sure it will get better with time.”
Bella barks and comes barreling toward us. Crouching down, I pick her up and pet her head as we walk through the foyer.
Tyrone comes from the direction of the kitchen. Seeing him in this luxurious place is weird as hell.
“Hey.” I give him a small smile, careful not to tug at the cut.
