And just like that, my treacherous brain dragged me back into the dark. I wasn’t seeing her in the living room anymore. I was seeing her on my bike, those same lips parted as she let out a broken, needy moan.

I had to look away before the hunger in my eyes gave me away to my brothers.

Fuck.

“That was bad,” Adriano laughed. “You killed the wrong guy.”

“Relax,” Gianna said quickly, sitting up straighter. “That just means I’m closer to the real ones.”

Dante stared at her, “Yeah,” he said, dropping back down. “She’s crazy like us..”

The game moved on but it wasn’t the same anymore. Because now, she was locked in.

“Adriano’s lying,” she said a few minutes later, pointing a finger directly at his chest.

“I don’t lie,” he said, looking deeply offended. “It’s against my religion.”

“You just did,” she shot back, leaning into the light.

“Prove it, Profiler.”

“You smiled before you answered.”

Then Dante lost it. “She’s profiling you!”

“That’s illegal,” Adriano said.

“That’s accurate,” Luca corrected.

Gianna leaned forward more, fully in it, her mother wasn’t lying when she said she was competitive “And you, she added, turning to Dante, “you’re talking too much.”

“I always talk too much,” he said.

“Exactly.”

“You’re attacking my personality now?”

“Yes.”

“Rude.”

“Effective.”

I watched her the entire time, I didn’t want to but I did. And it annoyed me. The way she leaned in when she got something right. The way her eyes lit up just slightly when someone slipped.

By the time the next round ended, the room was louder. People leaning into each other, arguing, accusing, laughing.
