Cora slowly opened her eyes and squinted at the sun seeping through the room. God her head hurt, she then realised she was not alone who was with her in her. She would’ve regretted last night if she knew exactly what had happened, she was too far gone. She had regretted that one drink or was it two? She turned his muscular body lay next to hers his hair fell over his face he looked more gorgeous asleep. What the hell was he doing there in her bed, and naked. She looked down, she was naked too what the hell had hapepend. She couldn’t even remember leaving the club. The regrets of that night we’re slowly coming to light as he opend his eyes and smiled. ‘Good morning sweetheart.’
‘Daniele.’
He smiled gliding the front of his hand down her fence lay motionless. ‘Are you okay sweetheart?’
‘What happened last night ?’
‘You getting drunk last night is what happened.‘
She looked at him.’
‘But I only had one maybe two.’
‘I think you has a little more than two sweetheart. I say you had a lot more.’
‘Fuck Marco’s going to kill me I broke a rule.’
‘Technically who ever got you drunk broke it not you. Marco allowed you two drinks instead of one, he brought you one when we arrived and one before we left.‘
‘So how did I get drunk?’
‘Somewhere in between.’ He looked at her his hand gliding down her face making her feel nervous. ‘Do you remember anything from last night sweetheart? Like did anyone buy you a drink?’
‘You all did.’
‘And we all made sure they were non alcoholic we don’t break Marco’s rules.’
‘So it was someone else in the club?’
‘Who did you speak to there sweetheart?’
‘The bar man I asked him for a drink.’
‘How many?’
‘I’m not sure a few why?’
‘What did you ask for?’
‘Lemonade why ?’
‘I think we’ve found our culprit.’
‘He spiked my drinks?’
‘Yes and I say he put a substantial amount of vodka in it seen as it is clear and you wouldn’t notice the difference in taste. Marco is going to have a fucking field day with this.’
‘Why are you in here Daniele?’
‘Marco asked me to take care of you ?’
‘So you took advantage of me instead?’ She asked angrily.
‘No I would never do that.’ He looked at her. ‘If you did not want it I would never have forced it on you Cora I promise. You were up for it and I’m sorry if it felt like I was taking advantage of you but I am not.’
The knock to the door alerted them. ‘Daniele are you awake.’
‘I am.’
‘The boss wants to see you.’
‘I’ll be out in a sec.’ He looked at her. ‘We’ll talk about this later okay. Right now I have to see what Marco wants’
She smiled, he pecked her on the forehead, slipping his naked body out of the bed dressing, slipping his shoes on walking out of the bedroom closing the door behind him. She lay wondering what more had to be said she’d fucked up and fucked up bad if Marco found out he’d be dead.
‘Daniele please come in take a seat.’
He nodded closing the door stepping into the office taking a seat. ‘You wanted to see me sir?’
‘Plese call me Marco Daniele we’re all family here.’
‘Sure sir, Marco.’
‘Is my niece awake?’
‘She is .’
‘How is she?’
‘Hungover and confused.’
‘How is that so? Confused I mean.’
‘I don’t think she remembers much. Especially how much she drunk, or how she got home.’
‘Did she talk to you about it?’
‘She didn’t break any rules Marco some one spiked her drinks.’
‘I thought as much we need to find out who,’
‘I think I might know.’
‘Please.’
‘The bar tender Marco. I saw her talking to him when she went to get a drink. She asked for lemonade. I think he slipped vodka into it Marco so none of us would notice even her.’
He clenched his fists. ‘And how many did she have exactly?’
‘She isn’t sure Marco. I’d say a lot considering how she was acting last night.’
‘She wasn’t the only one acting like an eighteen year old sex maniac.’
‘And I apologise Marco we’d all had alto to drink.’
‘Does she remember the shoot out?’
‘No.’
‘Good keep it that way.‘
‘Is there anything else?’
‘These came this morning.’
‘What are they? ‘
‘The DNA results.’
‘That was quick.’
‘I made them rush them through.’
‘Are you going to tell her?’
‘I will once I know the truth.’
‘Then what?’
‘We get my sister back and kill the mother fuckers.’
