Gael received a text from Trigger, informing him that Angela had arrived at the restaurant. Another text popped up soon after about who else was in the private room with her.
He hissed, cursing under his breath, and was about to place a call when the door to his own private dining room opened. His head snapped to the side, and he saw someone he didn't want to see that day.
A large, imposing man wearing a custom-tailored suit glared as he took a seat across Gael. "What the hell is this, De Luca?"
"You…" was all Gael could utter as he matched the other's scowl.
The man scoffed, shaking his head. "I can't believe this. Is this what your family has been up to now? You're after us… I knew it. I told Pakhan years ago it would be a bad idea to get involved with your family. He just doesn't listen." The disdain in Ivanovich Volkov's face was apparent.
