Fall For My Ex's Mafia Father novel Chapter 291

“Or…four?” Fay says excitedly, smiling at Daniel with an eager expression.

Daniel gapes at Fay, his eyes darting between her and his father.

“Oh, he knows you have a boyfriend,” Fay says, rolling her eyes. “You should bring him!”

Daniel goes a little pale then, realizing that this post-Natalia era was one in which all of their secrets were apparently going to be laid bare.

“You should,” Kent says evenly, looking seriously at his son. “If there’s someone who is…important to you, who you’d like to introduce to me…you should bring them.”

Wary, Daniel takes a deep breath, not sure how he feels about this. “All right,” he says slowly. “I’ll…think about it.”

“And I’ll go to the barn!” Fay declares, grinning and standing on her tiptoes to give Kent another kiss before heading for the door. “Jerome will take me. See you tonight!”

Daniel makes some excuse, heading out on Fay’s heels, but Kent barely hears his son as he watches Fay go. Because he is very, very excited for this new era.

Good things, he knows, are just around the corner for all of them.

________________________________

I chatter almost unceasingly to Jerome in the car, telling him all about the absence of the Italians and begging him to consider coming to the little family party tonight. He refuses immediately, letting me know that Kent is going to cut his head off when he finds out that its him – a low-level Mafia lackey – dating Daniel, and not some Ivy-league rich boy like Daniel should be dating.

As we move into the stable and the riding ring I protest, arguing that it’s not going to be like that – that Kent was, after all, very accepting of Daniel being gay despite all of the ideas everyone has long had about what happens to gay men in Mafia families. So why would he care at all who Daniel is dating?
