“I’ll email you the file I have,” he says, and I nod.

“I’d appreciate it.”

“De nada,” he murmurs.

“I may need you to back me up.”

“We’re brothers,” he says, but I shake my head.

“Yeah, well, judging from my father losing his mind last night, I can only imagine Bull’s response will be worse.”

Breaker snorts. “You scared, Bro?”

“Fuck you,” I snarl, good-naturedly.

“Dad wants Thea happy. Do that and don’t fuck her over, and he’ll be fine.”

“Let’s hope you’re right. Now that I’ve had just a small taste of Thea, I already know that I’m not letting her go. I’ll bust my ass to keep her happy, Breaker. I promise you that.”

Breaker slaps my back and puts his cup on the counter. “Good to have you back, Dom.”

With that, he walks out. After he leaves, I stare at the door for a few minutes, shaking my head, unsure what to make of it all. I just know that I was serious when I said I’d kill that motherfucker if he tried to follow Thea here. I might do it either way.

Now, I have one more thing to add to my list. I’m going to stop by the phone company and get Thea a phone under the club’s name. That fucker had to work hard to get her new number. He won’t get that shot again.

No fucking way.

Chapter 29

Dom

“Dom? Is everything okay?” Thea asks, looking worried as she steps out of the auditorium into the warm Kentucky air just outside of the building.

I knew she had something going on at the college today, but I didn’t realize it was an all-day seminar. The main office directed me to the correct building. I went inside and looked around like an idiot. Luckily, my girl spotted me pretty quick and followed me out.

“You forgot your phone,” I explain. “I didn’t want you to be without it all day. You might have needed me.”

Her face gets soft, and she steps into me, leaning up to place a kiss along the side of my jawline. “Who knew you could be so thoughtful?”

“It wasn’t completely because of that. I also wanted to see you again.”

“Is that a fact?” she practically giggles.

“Yeah. You’re very addicting. I don’t like being away from you.” She might think I’m joking, but I’m not at all.

“Good, because I’m feeling the same about you,” she purrs close to my ear. She wraps her arms around me. I kiss her forehead, returning the embrace.

“You keep this up, sweetheart, and you’re going to miss the lecture because I’m going to take you with me today.”

“What would we do?”

I grin down at her. “Does that mean you’re willing to skip school and go with me?”

She lets out a sigh of disappointment. “I can’t. Our test next week revolves around this lecture. I need a good grade.”

“Then I better let you get back to it,” I respond regretfully. I reach into my back pocket and take out her new phone. She frowns as she takes it from me.

“This isn’t my phone. I mean, it’s newer, but it’s not mine.”
