I re-read Alina’s comments.
All this for a kiss?
Chapter 34
A sensation of dread
Kazimir
Idrop my phone on the console, face down.
It chimes again.
What the hell is going on?
These photos shouldn’t illicit this level of excitement.
At this rate, it’ll be nighttime before I’m able to fuck Harley.
“Wow, we’re more popular than the President and the First Lady,” Harley says.
“Tell me about it.”
I check my phone.
I frown at the text from Grazie Mille’s new interim manager.
Melissa
Sorry to bother you on a Sunday.
Kazimir
How can I help you?
Melissa
I haven’t contacted the owner yet, he’s next on the list. Since you’re in the city and representing him, I reached out to you first. This is an emergency.
I squint at my phone, a sensation of dread tightening my stomach.
Kazimir
What’s going on?
Melissa
The police and the FBI are here. They asked me to close the restaurant. All patrons were ushered out.
My head jerks back.
Kazimir
Is it in relation to the former manager?
