Lady Boss (The Spitfire Book 2)(2)
She looked down at the stilts she had on her feet, fucking women.
"Nothing for you to worry about, ever, that's my shit to deal with not yours."
"Just so you know those imaginary sons of yours if they ever do exist are going to etiquette school."
"You're not turning my sons into pussies."
"Open the door douche bag."
"I'm getting on it, give me a sec."
I pulled out my phone to check in with my detail and hers, just because she was with me didn't mean she didn't still have Tommy on her ass, of course I had to talk in code so she wouldn't understand what I was saying to him.
I hung up the phone and opened the door for the mouthy one.
"That that dark haired guy that's been following me for about a week?"
"What the fuck?"
Chapter 2
Prince of the City
How the fuck had she made Tommy? Had he been carless or was she just that observant? I had to play this shit off or who knows what the fuck would come of it.
"Who's following you crazy lady?"
"The guy you were just talking to, I hope he doesn't sit in that car all day while I'm in class, you might as well pay me the money to look out for myself.
"Whatever, we'll deal with your paranoia later; right now I just want to take my woman out to breakfast."
"Uh huh, paranoid my ass, you tell Tessio if he's going to be tailing me he might as well give me a ride, I could save on gas, it would be good for the environment."
"Would you quit it, damn; can we just go have breakfast like normal people?"
"Listen John Roselli, only one of us is normal and it ain't you."
"Plan on dumping me in a steel drum do ya?"
"Don't forget the sawed off legs part, handsome Johnny."
She had the nerve to laugh in my face, I didn't know what my life was gonna be like, half the time I didn't know whether to fuck her or strangle her.
As I walked her through the door being sure to keep her on my inside away from harm, my phone rang.
Mom calling.
"Ma?"
"Good morning son, how are you this fine morning?"
Oh shit, she was up to something, whenever she got this sugary sweet it always meant my ass was on the line for something.
"I'm good, I'm about to take Arianna to breakfast."
"Oh how sweet, actually that's why I'm calling, I want Ari here for Sunday dinner, if the girl is going to be part of the family we might as well throw her into the deep end of the pool right off, don't you think so sweetheart?"
Well fuck me, I knew she would eventually have to come but not this soon, not only was I not ready to share her with anybody, not even my own mother, but too much exposure to the females in my family was not a food thing.
"Uhhh......"
"That's wonderful son, so we'll see you at your usual time, and could you please do something with your brother, he's gone strange all of a sudden."
Oh fuck I forgot all about Mouth and Jimmy, how the hell can I get out of this shit? If I missed Sunday dinner ma would have a fit of astronomical proportions, I couldn't leave Mouth alone not with the Staccos still on the loose. They'd gone into hiding and it was taking me a minute to flush them out, not that I was worried, I wasn't the best in the business because of my looks, I got shit done when it needed doing.
Now instead of doing my shit I have to deal with the women in my life, give me the Staccos and their fuckery please. I didn't mouth off to ma, just made noises in her ear that she wanted to hear and hung up the phone.
"Afraid of your mother are you?"
We had reached the car and of course those two fucks overheard her and started laughing, when did I lose my edge, when did people start disrespecting my manhood?
I gave the two of them a glare, seated her next to me in the back with my hand thrown over her shoulders and kept my mouth shut. It was too early in the damn day for this shit.
Breakfast was interesting as was to be expected, Mouth thought she was eating toast and coffee, I had other ideas, you can imagine how that went.
"You need to eat, that's not enough food to feed a cat, bring her the steak and eggs, hash browns, and toast, you want pancakes Mouth......?"
She was busy ignoring me; the poor waitress looked like she would rather be in Outer Mongolia right about now.
"Oh, you finish trying to feed the free world, I can order now? Thank you, as I was saying ...what's your name, uh, Sandy, as I was saying, wheat toast with butter and coffee black."
"Mouth swear to God, I will force feed you this shit, you're not going all day on toast and coffee, not on my watch, bring what I ordered please."
Good at least the waitress still feared me, somebody around here was acting like they had some sense, the peanut gallery was fighting their laughter, elbowing each other on the sly.
