My Masters' Nightmare, Season 1 / Episode 14 by Marita A. Hansen Page B

so be patient. The rescue will take time to plan. When I
get back, I’ll call my contact straight away.”
    “ Then find that FBI troia and get back
fast.”
    “ Watch what you say about my
woman or I’ll throw you to the Landi.” I sneered at her. “And by
the way, our fake engagement is off.”
    Her eyes shot to the soldiers, who were
now standing several feet away.
    “ They fucking know I lied about
our relationship,” I said, thinking she was a stupid troia. “You two hugging
like lovebirds sealed the deal. Now, I’ll have to answer to Pedro
because you two fucking idiots couldn’t keep your hands off each
other.”
    “ You racing off after Rita is
enough proof you’re not with me. Not to mention, you constantly
call her your woman in front of them.”
    “ I’m a Don, I can have lots of
woman. I can have a fiancée, a mistress, and a harem full of
fucking puttane if I wanted and they wouldn’t bat an eyelash. But if you so
much as look at another cock, they would know you weren’t with me,
because no Don would allow their woman to make a fool of them and
get away with it.”
    “ Well, I don’t care, because I
don’t want you anymore. All I want is Jagger.” Her eyes moved to
the Landi soldiers, who were clearly listening in. “I’m still
pregnant with a D’Angelo baby, it’s just Jagger’s instead of
Frano’s, so you can’t kill me.”
    “ That’s not up to
us ,” the
head soldier with the pocked face said, “and I think my boss has
more important things to worry about than a Donatelli puttana .”
    Jagger’s back straightened, his eyes
flashing angrily. “Apologize to her!”
    “ I tell it as I see
it.”
    Jagger let go of Camila and
went for the soldie r. I stepped in front of him, shoving him back. “Don’t be
stupid! He can take you out in the blink of an eye.”
    “ He insulted my woman! You
would’ve attacked him if he insulted Rita.”
    “ So, she’s your woman
now?”
    “ Sì . And no one touches her but
me.”
    I snor ted. “No one wants to, she’s toxic.
Just put us out of our misery and take her inside. Go fuck her
brains out, because she’s obviously fucked yours out if you want
her. She’s a blood sucking leech, who will bleed you
dry.”
    He gritted his teeth, his eyes flashing.
“At least she’s by my side—unlike your woman.” He turned Camila
towards the door. Two of the four soldiers followed them
inside.
    I shifted my gaze to the head soldier.
“We need to grab some water and food before we head out
again.”
    “ Do you have any other ideas where your
female could’ve gone?” he replied.
    I frowned, trying to
think ... My
eyes widened. I shot inside the house, yelling,
“Camila!”
    Jagger and Camila came to a stop in
front of the staircase.
    I headed for her.
“ Did you
talk to your uncle about Rita?”
    “ I...”
    “ Did you?!”
    “ Sì .”
    Jagger shot in front of me as I
reared up. “Back off, Frano!”
    “ Not until she tells me what she
said to Christo about Rita!”
    Jagger turned to
her . “Tell
him.”
    She went silent.
    “ Tell him!”
    She cleared her throat. “He has her
brother. I think he’s using him as bait.”
    “ And you didn’t tell me
this!” I yelled.
    “ I didn’t think to.”
    “ More l ike you didn’t want to.”
    “ No, it wasn’t like that. I
didn’t think she would go after him without your help. Christo
phoned last night. I just told her what he said. I thought she’d
tell you.”
    “ I asked you if you’d seen her
and you said you hadn’t, so don’t give me that bullshit. I’ve been
running around this fucking island like a madman looking for her,
yet you didn’t say a word when you knew all along where she
went.”
    She shook her head vigorously. “No, I
don’t know where she went.”
    “ You must’ve told her a meeting
place.”
    “ Christo mentioned Marco’s Mall,
that’s all. But if she did go to him, that would’ve been during the
middle of the night. I honestly didn’t know
