“Nope.” I cross my arms, covering my chest, and stare her down.
I need her gone before she messes things up between me and Nell.
I see a flicker of mischief and defiance in her eyes before she lunges. Her arms go around my neck and she kisses me.
Shock radiates through me for a split second, before I pull my arms from between us and put them on her hips to push her away.
“What the fuck?” I snap, wiping my mouth with the back of my hand.
“What the hell, Daniella?” Asher growls at her, pulling her away.
She smirks and looks behind me. “I knew she was not for this life and not for you.”
“What are you talking about?”
“Rome, Nell just ran out here like a bat out of hell. She saw this bitch kiss you.”
My gaze swings back to my ex and I growl, my anger spiking to an all new level.
“You are fucking done.” I pull out my phone and hit the contact for my uncle.
“Romeo,” he answers.
“Uncle Mario.” Daniella’s eyes go wide with fear. “I need Daniella off the island as soon as possible. She just kissed me without my consent, in turn hurting my girl. Nell saw it and ran off. I am going to find her now, but I wanted you to know what has happened.”
“She is best friends with my daughter, nephew. I cannot have my daughter unhappy that her best friend is not at her wedding,” he tells me, and I sigh, hating that he sees it that way.
He has been warned about what Daniella has been doing, and reports said that he was not happy with her.
“I am sorry to do this, Uncle, but if Daniella is at the wedding, Nell and I will not be there.” I hate to make threats, but my ex needs to know that her actions have consequences.
We are locked in a stare; Daniella’s eyes are filled with tears, but they don’t bother me; in fact, they set off no fucking sympathy at all for her.
I hear him sigh and he calls for my auntie, but I do not hear what she has to say as it is muffled.
“It will be done. I will get her sent home.”
“Thank you, Uncle.” I end the call. “Pack your shit, you are gone.”
I look to Asher. “I need to find Nell. Deal with the trash, will you?”
“Will do, brother.”
With that, I leave them there and go in search of my girl to make it up to her. I just fucking pray that my feisty little one listens to me.
Chapter Seventeen
Nell
I wake from the most rested night of sleep I have had in a long time.
I usually wake at the crack of dawn to get ready for deliveries at Comfort Cup.
I keep my eyes closed, and flashes of last night scroll through my mind. I stifle a giggle at the thoughts of what Romeo did to me.
Opening my eyes, I see that the sun is high in the sky. Turning over, I expect to see Romeo sleeping, and I frown seeing that his side of the bed is empty.
Disappointment rolls through me like a Mack truck.
