.“But you love him.”Mari, with the obvious.“I don’t want to talk about it.”“Do you know where he is?’ Martin asked.“Fuck, what part of I don’t want to talk about it do you not get?” Mateo slapped at his wet eyes with shaking fingers.“It doesn’t matter if I know where he is, which I don’t.He doesn’t want me and I don’t blame him.I just…” He heaved a sigh.“I just want to move on.Forget him.Like he’s forgotten me.” He walked out the kitchen and out the front door.He got into his car and drove off before the pain froze him completely.Chapter Two“You rang?”Mateo raised an eyebrow at his former boss-slash-friend-slash-whatever the hell Pablo Castillo once was.The other man used to lead Los Pescadores, but he’d fallen in love with a DEA agent and given everything up without a second look.The gang was broken up, out of business, with Pablo shacking up with Shane Ruskin.“Took you long enough.” Pablo stepped back and held the door open to the apartment he shared with Shane in Atlanta.“I drove.” Mateo glanced around at the place, noting the overturned furniture, bare walls and shattered glass littering the floor.“Got robbed?”Pablo snorted.“Shit, I wish.” He righted a chair that sat sprawled on its side and gestured for Mateo to sit in the crowded living room.“We’re moving, bought a house.”Mateo sank into the seat, watching the light in Pablo’s eyes.His face was relaxed, his entire body language one of a man standing right where he wanted to be.That was the reason Mateo stayed away, why he didn’t take Pablo up on his invitations to come down to visit.He didn’t like the way he felt when he saw Pablo and Shane together.Didn’t like the way he wanted to shout at them to stop with the kissy-face and touchy-feely crap, how his eyes always seemed to burn more around them.“Nice.” He slapped Pablo on the shoulder.“Where’s the mister?”Pablo frowned.“Supermarket.We’re supposed to babysit his niece, but the fridge is freaking bare, man.” He rubbed a hand over his face, the only sign of his exhaustion.“This moving shit is no joke.I’m never doing this again.”Mateo grinned.“Let’s face it, you’ll do whatever the mister says.Right?”Pablo peered at him, eyes narrowed dangerously.“You saying I’m whipped?”Mateo gasped in mock surprise.“Who, me? Would I ever say such a thing?”“Fuck off.” Pablo rolled his shoulders.“I had to leave you a dozen messages, you screening your calls?”“I was busy.” He stretched his legs out, giving Pablo a wicked grin.“Picked up a li’l some’n tight, couldn’t pass it up.” Damn.He got hot thinking about the chick he’d eyed at the Arch nightclub.Jamaican.All kinds of ass on her.All kinds of kinky too.He’d taken her to the Galaxy Motel, only doors down from the club, and had a go at that ass.The way that shit bounced when he took her from the back.He licked his lips.Pablo eyed him, something in his gaze yanking Mateo out of his daydream.“What?”Pablo sighed and shook his head, a small smile playing at the corners of his mouth.“They left their mark on you.” He nodded and Mateo lifted a hand to the scratches on his neck he’d noticed only after he’d left her facedown on the broken hotel room bed.“You don’t usually let them leave marks.”Mateo shrugged.“Got carried away.”“Uh-huh.” Pablo cursed under his breath.“You’re not even trying anymore, are you?”“Trying what?”Pablo got to his feet and paced, at least he tried to.Boxes were strewn in his path.“You’re not trying to hide how fucked up you are, how much of a dick you’re being.”“What?” Mateo jumped to his feet.“Dick? We gonna talk about dicks now?”“You’re not a kid, Teo.” Pablo got up in his face, stared him in the eye.“Think.That shit isn’t cool.Not anymore.Calm your ass down and think about what you’re doing and what you want.”Mateo shook his head.“No.” He held up a hand.“Don’t talk to me about thinking, don’t ask me what I want.I have what I want.” He had what he wanted, more sex than his body could handle, money in the bank and time on his hands to spend that shit.“Bullshit.” Pablo poked him in the chest.Mateo cocked an eyebrow.Really?“Bullshit,” Pablo repeated.“Tell me, why don’t you come around me and Shane? Huh? Why are you staying away from us?”Mateo pursed his lips.As if he’d answer that question.“Answer me, Teo.Why do you always make up an excuse to not come visit me? You hate me?” he asked.God, really? “No, shit.You know I don’t hate you, okay, man?” He looked away from the knowing glint in Pablo’s eyes.“I just…I see you and Shane and that makes me—it hurts, all right? Watching the two of you hurts.” He slapped a hand to his chest.“Here.”“Why do you think that is?”“Because I want it, that’s why!” He blinked at the outburst.Shiitt.Admitting that took a lot.He sank back down on the chair.“I want what you have—not, you know, Shane, but the relationship.”“Here’s a thought.” Pablo pulled a sheet of paper from his pants pocket and tossed it at him.“Do something about it.”Mateo grabbed the paper and stared at it.It was a plane ticket, printed out.“Chico, California,” he read aloud.“Where is that?”“Some bumfuck town in California, but the where doesn’t matter.” Pablo grinned.“It’s the who.”Yeah, Mateo was lost.“Who?”“Tommy.”No.See, that name was off-limits.Pablo knew that, so why was he bringing it up, dropping that name as if it were hot, in the middle of their conversation? “Don’t.” His body did that thing, that slight tremor he got whenever someone mentioned Tommy [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
