I chuckle at her wit, although it’s a low blow.

D: Maybe that’s why…

G: I doubt it.

This girl is about to get me into trouble — although it’s easy trouble compared to the kind I get myself into most days.

Continuing to see her puts a lot of things at risk. Not only do I stand to lose a friend, but since her father is my client, there’s the question of integrity and anonymity.

Giving into temptation once or twice was one thing, but if I keep seeing her, there is bound to be a shitstorm waiting for us both.

She keeps texting me and we flirt until she tells me she’s falling asleep.

G: Please don’t let Will find out about tonight.

D: About the puking? Or the old guys checking you out?

G: About you seeing me.

D: Ah.

G: He’s warned me that you’re dangerous.

D: He’s right.

G: So dangerous that you give up your night’s plans to come and save a silly girl from a bar?

D: Something like that.

I wait a whole twenty minutes, but Gianna doesn’t send another text.

I assume she’s fallen asleep. I think about what Will told her, wondering just how much he’s told her about me.

He’s never come across as judgmental. Lord knows I could judge him for a few things as well.

But if I had any siblings to worry about, I might also be extra careful about who they choose to spend their time with.

The only problem for Will is, I don’t like to be told what to do. And while I know that continuing to see Gianna would be a mistake, having Will try to turn her off on me makes me want her even more. Like it’s going to somehow prove something to Will.

I am a dangerous man, but not to people like Gianna. And because I’m so dangerous, at least he’d know that Gianna was fully protected. Unlike under her brother’s watch, drinking at random bars all alone.

It’s like her family has no regard for her safety. She can’t be wandering around the city like that. Her family is involved with some very shady stuff. She could just go missing one day and they would feel incredibly stupid for not protecting her better.

Then my thoughts land on Gianna. If William has told her how dangerous I am, and her response was to try and booty call me tonight, then clearly, he didn’t do a good job of scaring her off.

The girl is smart, but she’s also got a side to her that craves some excitement.

I could easily make her heart race faster, throw it in her brother’s face, and enjoy more of that warm pussy and ass that she so willingly offers to me.

So why am I worrying about the stupid stuff?

We’re both grown and able to consent for ourselves. If Gianna and I want to fuck each other every now and then, who’s going to stop us?

“Dominic Santoro?” I turn at the sound of my name to see two police officers standing behind me in the local coffee shop.

I just came down to get out of my loft and enjoy a cup of coffee in peace, yet somehow, I still can’t escape people who want to interact with me.
