"She turned you into a little pussy." Davi states with a smirk I hated so much.

"I am not-"

"You are brother. The minute we walked towards you your face told it all. You had murder in them when you seen Nia's hand in mine. Does it bother you?" Davi taunts and I found myself tightening my jaw.

"Why do you always insist on pissing me off? This isn't about my feelings towards Nia-"

"Ohhh you have feelings-" He rolls his eyes.

"This is not about that! Sanders is said to be here dumbass that was the main reason for me to not invite her!" I spat and Davi froze his playful tone now gone.

"Oh shit."

"Oh shit my ass! You fucked up man.." I groaned out rubbing my temple in frustration. "We have to figure out a way to get her out of here before he shows up. If he sees her, it's end game and I don't want to have to shoot up this event." I explained and Davi nods apologetically.

"I'm sorry man, I wasn't thinking. She was upset about you bringing Kali so I wanted to cheer her up and help her.. you know.." He twirls his fingers around each other.

"You know?" I stretch and he sighs.

"Help her make you jealous. I figured you were back being a dick."

"Since when did you care so much about how she felt anyway?" I question warily, clenching my fist at the thought of my brother wanting her for himself.

"Relax. I don't want her like that I just see her as a sister and hopefully- that's a big hopefully considering how dumb you are- the groups future Donna."

I scoffed. "I don't need a woman to help me run my mafia."

"Every man needs a woman to help him run his life. It's literally written in the Bible. You need balance."

"Just shut the fuck up and get Nia far away from here as possible."

"I think it might be too late for that." Davi says as he glances at something behind me, his eyes darkening as he flares his nostrils.

I whipped my head around to see Nia engaging in a deep conversation with a man towering over her. He still looked the same as I remembered the bastard. Tall, lean, full of old scars, brown hair and dark eyes to match. Sanders.

I didn't think twice before I made my way over towards the two with Davi close to my heel. I don't know what the fucker was thinking but I pray to god Sanders has the decency to not try nothing with me right now. He and I both know it's too soon for a gun fight in the middle of an event.

Once we made it close enough for me to hear their conversation, I cleared my throat angrily making Nia turn around to face me. She tried to hide it but I seen the disgust, pain and lust behind her eyes.

When Sanders spots me his smug smirk widened into a full blown grin. "The Abdul brothers, fancy seeing you two here." Sanders chuckles darkly as he stands closely- too fucking close- behind Nia.

"Nia, come here." I ordered and she tilted her head in defiance. "Now." I repeated, not taking my eyes off of Sanders who was staring at me with mischievous eyes.

After hesitating, she looked to Davi who just nodded once before moving over to stand beside me.

"I would love to know what the two of you was talking about."

"Oh nothing important, I was just telling this beauty here how gorgeous her dress was. She's a real looker isn't she?" He purrs while disgustingly taking in her body once more. I seen Nia shiver in the corner of my eyes and I don't know if it's because she feels uncomfortable or because she's turned on. Either way, this bitch got a reaction out of her and I hate it.

"She does. Too bad you won't get the chance to see more of her."

"Ah, how I missed your snarky comments, Apollo."

"And I missed nothing about you, Sanders." Nia stiffens at the mention of his name probably now figuring out why I wanted her to move.

"You know-"

"Sanders! My man!" A elder man yells out to him from the corner of the room and Sanders lips peaks up in a welcoming smile. Before he walks away to greet his freind, he looks back at us.

"Always a pleasure speaking to you, Apollo. Davi. Nia." He says seductively towards her with a wink and I fought the urge to punch him right then and there.

Once he's out of our sight, the three of us release a breathe of relief we didn't know we were holding. "That went oddly well." Davi mutters but I shook my head.

"Too well, something's wrong." I say to myself. Sanders is known to be a conniving man and anytime he is overly sweet or kind , it usually means he has something up his sleeves. When he's scowling and angry is when you should be calm and unalert. Like I just said, something isn't right.

Sighing, I look down at Nia who was undoubtably pissed at me. "What the fuck were you thinking?"

She cranks her neck back and her eyebrows crease. "Excuse me?"

'Why are you here, Nia? Talking to him of all people?"

She scoffs with her hands on her hips. "Are you fucking joking? I didn't know who the man was, you cannot blame me for such a thing. And What do you mean I shouldn't be here? Are you embarrassed by me or what? Anytime an event as big as this happens, I am always stuck in the house with the freaking maids while you get to come out and have drinks with your... sex demon. I'm growing very tired of you." She says with wild eyes. Her voice had risen during her little rant, causing a few people to look our way.

"This is not something I do for fucking fun," I whispered harshly. " This isn't some random party I go to have drinks and fucking mingle, Nia. Shit like this is important to me and something you don't need- no cant- be apart of. Not to mention the man you are supposedly married too was here and you could've been in danger. Do you think I have time to sit here and try to save your ass while keeping my cool? Lets not forget that you are still unknown to the world and it needs to stay that way. Sanders could have easily taken you or worse and I would have had to deal with that bullshit. Use your fucking head and let Davi take you the fuck home."

"No." She says simply, shrugging her shoulders as if she wasn't disobeying her fucking Don.

Chuckling lightly, I repeat. "No?"

"No."

"Youre testing my patience love." I say darkly. Th fear in her eyes was evident but she stood her ground.

"Don't call me that, and fuck you Apollo."

"Yea, fuck you too at this point." Just then, Amina, Xander, and Kali rushes towards us with panic written over their faces. The sight made me go on full alert as I straightened my back.

"Boss, we have a problem."
