Chapter 41.

Now, he has to choose between protecting her and ignoring her. He glanced at Laurel's door. She should be asleep by now. He no longer heard her loud munching. Lucas wanted to worry about the women in his life tomorrow and that is why they were so complicated. That is why men were less complicating. Not for relationship though.

The moment he removed his eyes from the business, they would begin to make mistakes. They were mafia lords but his leadership was needed greatly.
