“Enzo!”
My head snaps to my door when my brother’s voice echoes down the hall.
“I’m in here!” I yell back.
Footsteps sound on the marble floor until Teo’s head pokes through the door. “Oh, what the fuck!” he yells, turning away.
“Oh, don’t act like you’ve never seen a fucking dick before,” I scoff out.
“My own dick is plenty enough dick for me to ever see in my life. What the fuck are you doing?”
“Be a good big bro and go grab the keys lying on the floor somewhere over by the table.”
Teo enters my room while shielding his face from seeing me.
What a child.
He looks around for the keys, but my patience—and bladder—are wearing thin.
“Do you see them?” I ask.
“Does it look like I see them?”
“Well, maybe if you got on your hands and knees and tried a little harder, you would.”
“Hey, do youwantmy help, or would you prefer I leave your ass cuffed to that bed longer?”
I let out a long sigh and remain quiet while Teo gets on his hands and knees to search for the small keys.
“Ahh, here they are,” he says, then pushes himself up and walks over to me.
“Oh, thank fuck. Hurry, I’m about to piss myself.”
“How the hell did you end up like this?” he asks while unlocking one wrist, then hands me the key to unlock my other.
I shake out my wrists, rubbing the swollen marks I gave them after trying to yank myself out of this position last night.
“You don’t want to know,” I grumble, then jump out of the bed, grab a pair of boxers, and hurry for the bathroom.
“On the contrary,” he calls out. “I’d actuallyloveto know.”
I let out a long breath while finally relieving myself in the toilet, hoping my brother will stop with the questions.
“What’re you even doing here?” I ask him.
As if he just remembered why he’s here, Teo’s voice gets sharp when he says, “I’ve been calling you all damn day.”
After putting the new boxers on and washing my hands, I walk back into my room. “I was a little… tied up, as you can see, but you’re here now, so what’s up?”
“Do you have an update on Velasco and Montoya?” he snaps, and I’m taken aback by the sudden change in his tone.
“No? They’re still in the city, but there’s not much to update on.”
“Well,Ihave a fucking fantastic update. One I’m sure you’d love to hear about.”
The humor of finding me naked and cuffed to my bed has completely left Teo’s eyes and has been replaced with a maniacal look. They’re so wide open it’s a surprise they haven’t bulged out of their sockets at this point. It’s like some crazed person took over his body in a split second.
This might explain the anger I heard in his tone when he first called out my name.
