"So, there is a thing between you and our little sister." Antonio wasn't asking.
Under normal circumstances, I'd probably try to deny it, knowing I risked getting my balls cut off. But these weren't normal circumstances, and I cared more about Vanessa than keeping my balls attached to my body. Yeah, pussy-whipped did not even begin to cover it.
"Listen, man," I started, not backing down an inch, "I know you have your rules and whatnot, but yeah, there is something between me and Vanessa, and I don't care if you approve or not. It's happening. And nothing, and I mean nothing, will stop me from finding her. Not you or your goddamn rules."
Both brothers stared at me, not saying a word. For the first time in my career, my detective instincts failed me, because I had no fucking clue what to expect from them next.
I glanced at Antonio. "And like your brother said earlier, let's find Vanessa first, then we can kill each other, okay?"
