followed my steps down the stairs .“ Papa gone ? ”
    “ Yeah . ” He opened the door to the five car garage through the back of the house.
    “ The Mercedes ? ” He asked rhetorically. Tony and Sal told me what to do, not the other way around. Like I'd said before, annoying big brothers.
    I stared at the reflection shinning off of the blacked out windows as he opened the white door for me to enter. I seated myself inside and flipped the visor down, taking a peek at my makeup. The lighting on the visor was fantastic.
    He stepped into the car .“ Seatbelt . ” He ordered.
    “ So wha t’ s up ? ” I asked, curious. H e’ d been hiding something from Papa, I could tell and h e’ d only do that if it was important enough that he not know, which never happens.
    “ I think that Casconi is planning something . ” He slowly backed out of the garage, stopped to watch the door close and set the house alarm with a remote.
    “ You believe me ? ” I tilted my head surprised.
    “ Oh yeah. I know you do n’ t make shit up, Bella. If you said it happene d …” His narrow eyes met mine .“ I believe you . ”
    “ Why does n’ t Papa believe me ? ” I asked as we turned into the winding road.
    He took a deep breath .“ You were gone for an entire day. He only called right before you were found. If yo u’ d ran through the woods to the highway, I guaranteed it took you at least thirty minutes to get there. H e’ d have plenty of time to call your father. He knew you got away and had to come up with something to save his ass . ” He raised his right brow as he pulled onto the highway.
    “ Did you tell Papa ? ” Maybe I hadn't been crazy after all.
    “ Yeah, but he did n’ t want to believe that he could try something like that . ”
    “ Fabulous . ” I leaned my head against the head rest.
    “ I'll be guardingyou so don't protest . ”
    “ Why ? ” I hated having a guard.
    “ Because I said . ”
    I watched the seriousness in his face. "Okay," I hesitantly agreed.
    “ I specifically want Casconi to know you have someone with you at all times. If he knows that, h e’ ll probably trip on his own feet. I really do n’ t get why Anthony does n’ t see that idiots intentions with you . ”
    “ Neither does Sal, so annoying . ” I watched out the window as the bare trees flew by .“ I scratched Sa m’ s neck. I still have the blood in my nails. I could n’ t get it all out. So gross . ” I extended my hand to show him.
    “ Damn Bella . ” he sucked in a breath.
    “ Yeah . ” I sank into the seat .“ Oh, my bag and phone are still at his house. Could we go there so that I can get it ? ”
    “ Oh, I’ d love to see that bastard . ” He smiled.
    Out of everyone that works for my father, Tony and I are the closest. He was still an ass, but in comparison to the other guys, he was the coolest and best to look at.
    The drive took us another twenty minutes until we arrived at Sa m’ s house. I reached for the door.
    “I’ ll go . ” Tony pressed his hand on my arm.
    “ No, I’ d like to see this assholes face and those scratches . ” I smirked.
    “ Do n’ t say anything . ” He pleaded.
    “ Really ? ” A laugh slipped from my lips.
    Tony opened my door, I stepped out and approached the huge front door. I bang on it and then rang the doorbell a few times hoping to piss someone off at nine in the morning.
    “ What the- ? ” A large man answered .“ Can I help you ? ” A large man with a twitchy eye answered. I do n’ t know this man, but remembered seeing him before.
    “ Yeah, you sure can. I’ d like to get my belongings . ” I snapped.
    “ Umm, Mr. Casconi could you please come to the front door ? ”
    “ Ca n’ t I come in? I t’ s freezing out here . ” I started to push my way in.
    He opened the door allowing Tony and me to pass.
    “ Bella? Wha t’ re you doing here ? ” Sam hopped down the stairs in a hurry.
    “ Wow ! ” His neck was messed up.
    His hand reached for his
