The Biker’s Mafia Princess (Angel and Savage) novel Chapter 60

Angel POV.

Sitting in the kitchen at the island in the home I now share with Ryder. I look at my laptop until my brows furrow. This can’t be right. Dad asked me to check on the family’s legitimate businesses and their inventory.

My family owns many businesses, from little stores, restaurants, nightclubs, casinos, and strip clubs. I’m currently checking the finances from the strip club known as Temptress. The first one was destroyed, so they rebuilt it.

We were kept away from the business side of things, but since I’m the DeNucci heir, I have to check on these businesses, as some of them are in my mom’s name. Unfortunately for me, the strip club is one of them.

But something isn’t adding up. I reach for my phone and call my mom. This was her responsibility, but from the figures, it looks like someone is skimming.

“Hello, princess. Everything ok?” she asks and I can hear she is driving.

“Momma, when was the last time you went to Temptress?” I ask her as I hear my brother in the background.

“I haven’t checked in since you came home, why what’s going on?” is she serious right now? Jesus Christ!

“Momma, I need to go there. Something isn’t right with these figures.” I say to her and she is quiet for a moment.

“Explain.” I sigh as I rub my forehead. Knowing damn well a migraine is brewing. I have been having them a lot lately. Ryder had me see a doctor, and they said my brain was still recovering from the surgery and I’m doing too much. I disagree, I’ve been fine, but the migraines wipe me out.

“I think someone is skimming, you know, while the cat is a way sort of scenario. I need to go there and observe what is going on. Have you hired any new staff in the last …” I scroll back to the first discrepancy.

“Thirteen months?” I ask her, at first it wasn’t much but over time it has consistently gone up.

“No, I leave the hiring to Alex. How much are we talking?” she asks like it is nothing. Why isn’t she more pissed off by this? If I was just told someone was stealing from my business, I would be causing bloody murder, but not my momma. She takes it in her stride.

“Over five hundred grand, momma. I need to go there and see what is happening. This Alex, he doesn’t know who I am, right?” I ask, because I’m not going undercover. I want to go in and see what is happening. Ok maybe it is undercover, but I am there to observe.

“No, he doesn’t. When are you going?” I look at the date on the laptop screen. Today is Saturday and the busiest night, so it looks like I will have to go tonight.

“Tonight. Look, keep it to yourself for now. Let me go in and have a look around. I will contact you when I have something. Oh, give a kiss to dad, and slap Nate and Nico on the back of their heads.”

“Heeey, not cool, sis. What have I ever done to you?” I hear him in the background and my momma chuckles.

“Love you, princess, take it easy.” We hang up and I see Ryder leaning against the doorframe, his thick arms crossed over his muscular chest as he watches me. My pussy clenches at the sight of him. I smile at him as he pushes off and walks towards me. He kisses my head and wraps me up in his arms from behind, resting his chin on my shoulder as he kisses my neck.

“Where do you think you are going?” he asks. His voice is husky and I look at him and point to the screen.

“You up for a night out?” I ask him, knowing we both need a night out, even if I am going for work. We can still have a good time.

“You needing to work?” I bite my bottom lip and nod my head. He kisses my neck again.
