“Fuck outa here. You wouldn’t even know the first thing to do with either,” Gio taunts and chuckles.
His laughter stops as he turns his head right as that guy grabs Ny’s wrist. The way Gio stiffens and cracks his knuckles, I know there’s no stopping him. However, Nyla does what Ny does.
“Oh,” the twins croon in unison as she rocks the guy’s head back with an uppercut with her free arm.
His ass is laid out for the count. Everyone in the rink stops to see what just happened. Ny stands with her arms across her chest, looking sexy as hell.
Gio stands and gets ready to move in her direction. “It’s getting crazy in here. You guys want to go play some ball?” Dante asks.
Gio seems to snap out of his rage and turns to look at his brothers. “Go wait in the car. I need to say hello to someone.”
He nods for me to follow them out. I stand and head to the SUV with them, keeping their focus on me.
Nyla
I feel him before I see him pass me. Gio locks eyes with me and silently tells me to follow him. This guy isn’t getting up off his ass anytime soon.
I turn and walk after Gio as he heads for the hall that leads to the training rooms and offices. Once behind the metal door that closes the rooms off from the rink, he spins to face me.
He grabs my face and lifts me onto his waist before stepping into the nearest door, which turns out to be one of the training rooms. My back hits the padded wall, causing the breath to be knocked out of me.
Gio’s lips are on mine before I can regain my breath. He holds on to my face as he kisses me roughly. I shove my hands into his hair and hold tight.
“I’ve wanted to stab a knife in his fucking neck for the last forty minutes. Before he approached you. I noticed the moment you caught his attention,” he says against my lips.
“He was an asshole. I had it.”
“I know, but I should have been able to step in. This shit is chipping at my sanity.”
He crashes my lips and kisses me passionately, nipping and sucking at my lips. I moan into his mouth as he cups one of my breasts and rubs his finger back and forth over my nipple.
He goes to unbutton my pants, but I grab his wrist. He looks up at me and narrows his eyes.
“Che cosa?”
“The cameras. The feed goes out front.”
He groans and places his forehead against my chin. “I forgot. I need you.”
“I’ll be waiting at home. Go finish hanging with the boys. They look so happy to have you here.”
He kisses me hard, then looks me in the eyes. “I want you in heels and something sexy when I get in.”
I slide down his body and feel his arousal pressing against his jeans. I bite my lip and look into his eyes. He looks back at me with so much fire and lust.
Leaning in, I then kiss his cheek. “I’ll be waiting. I love you.”
He palms my ass and tugs me into him. “I love you more,” he says against my lips then kisses my forehead.
My shoulders sag as he turns and leaves. Knowing he was here had me a little giddy. Even though I wanted to slap a few girls that were drooling over him and Jace.
He’s right, it is hard to act like we’re nothing. There’s a pang in my heart as I think about the fact that I can’t even hang with him and the twins. I grab a pair of gloves and head for the heavy bag.
I’m not interested in skating anymore, but I need to blow off some steam. I turn my face up to the camera and frown. Ugh, that would have been a hot moment to watch back.
Gio
I come out of the back of the rink and the asshole who grabbed Ny is heading for the bathroom. I change courses to follow after him. He touched what’s mine and that’s a problem for me.
Since I can’t fuck out my frustration, I’m going to make a point now that no one is watching. I slip into the bathroom after him and find none other than Jace with the dude in the air as he holds him by his throat. I should have known. It’s exactly what I planned to do.
“I don’t ever want to see you here again. If someone tells me you stepped foot in here or around her, I’m going to kill you myself,” Jace hisses.
I pull my gun from my ankle holster. “Respectfully, bro. I don’t think you made yourself clear enough,” I say to Jace, closing the distance to grab the guy from Jace’s hold and shove my gun in his mouth.
