“Her brother,” I mouth as Isabella puts it on speaker, the line ringing on the other side.
“Pronto?” Alessio answers, breathing heavily on the other end of the phone.
“Why are you breathing heavily? Are you having sex right now?” Isabella states through her tears.
“No, I’m not fucking having sex. I wouldn’t answer the phone if I were having sex. I was sparring with Catalina and the other guards. What’s up?” Alessio adds. We immediately all perk up and gather around Isabella and her phone.
“Catalina is with you?” Isabella shouts.
“She was. She’s headed back to Dario’s, but um,sorellina. She went a little extra hard and we ended up getting rid of some snitches. So, when she gets there, don’t be scared, but she’s going to have their fluids on her,” he admits.
Everyone is in shock. I immediately feel so fucking bad that Catalina had to do all that to let her anger out. I glance toward Sonny and he stares back at me.
“How do you feel about her killing someone?” I whisper to Sonny.
“Bad that she had to do that,” Sonny replies softly.
We should feel bad about her killing people, especially since I save lives and Sonny prosecutes killers. But for some reason, we just don’t. Growing up, I witnessed some of my dad’s shadiness back in the day, even if he didn’t know about it.
“Grazie, fratello. We’ll be on the lookout for her.Ti amo,” Isabella says.
“Anch’io ti amo, sorellina. Everything will be fine,” Alessio answers, ending the call.
Sonny, Isabella, and I sit on the couch and wait for Catalina to walk through the doors while Niccolo and Dario head to the kitchen to talk on the phone and grab us some water. A couple of minutes pass when I see a shadow underneath the door and hear the door jiggle open.
The look on all our faces is one of shock because Catalina walks in all bloody from head to toe with her trusty black machete in hand. She’s serving a full Carrie moment, and it looks scary, but hot at the same time. The more she comes inside, the more I see that she has a sinister smile. I’m so fucking in love with her right now. She looks like a boss-ass bitch who stood on business and I just want to kiss her.
“Babyyyy!” Isabella shouts as she runs up to Catalina. Catalina grabs Isabella as she jumps on her, wrapping her legs around her body. Isabella begins to sob while Catalina rubs her back up and down with her hand. Dario, Niccolo, Sonny, and I all crowd her, looking her over for any injuries.
“What’s the matter,princesa? I’m right here,” Catalina coos, soothing Isabella by rubbing her hand up and down her back.
Isabella’s head rises, looking over Catalina’s face, and says, “You’re not mad at me? I’m so sorry. I love you and didn’t mean to hurt or make you mad.”
Catalina puts Isabella down on her feet and declares, “Of course, I’m not mad, baby. It was a messed up situation, but it is what it is. I just felt wanted and needed by the crew, and I didn’t want to say something I’d regret. So, I needed to remove myself from the situation and let out some steam. Alessio texted he was outside and I said fuck it, let’s go. But I’m not mad at anyone, baby. I’d never be mad at you, Isabella.”
“You deserve to, though. We should’ve discussed everything before we went together as a group or the past weekend, but wedidn’t. I’m just sorry I didn’t discuss my boundaries with you and just let you believe that you were the one in the wrong, but you weren’t, and I’m sorry about everything. But seeing you like this is so much better becauseBABYY! You look so fucking good,” Niccolo states.
“It’s all good. We’re all good. We live and we learn. Now, I need to go wash all this blood off. Just had to end some rats that needed to be exterminated,” Catalina replies.
“Let’s go,diosa, let’s get you showered. I need to see if you’re okay and we can only do that naked.” I wink, grabbing her hand.
“I’m okay, baby girl. But I won’t turn down seeing you naked,” Catalina declares, her eyes craving release. And that’s what my little psycho will get.
“We’ll wait for you in my bed. We all want to apologize and make up for everything,” Dario orders, lightly touching Catalina’s arm.
“Yes, Big Daddy,” Catalina winks. Dario smiles brightly and Catalina leads me to her room.
“C’mon,princesa. Join us in the shower,” Catalina shouts, looking back as she sees Isabella tearing up in Sonny’s arms.
Isabella unravels herself from Sonny’s arms and runs directly into our embrace. We walk together into Catalina’s bedroom and I immediately grab Catalina by the back of her head, kissing her fiercely. I extend my hand and yank Isabella into our hold as we kiss each other in the hottest three-way kiss I’ve ever had.
Fuck, these two seriously have my heart and I’m so obsessed with them. I can’t wait to spend more time with them. I walk the three of us back into Catalina’s bathroom, never breaking our kiss. Isabella switches the light on and we unfortunately break our passionate, needy kiss. We immediately strip off our clothesand Isabella is the first to undress. She turns on the water in the shower as I inspect Catalina’s body for any apparent injuries.
“I’m okay, baby girl. I promise,” Catalina whispers, kissing my shoulder to calm my anxious feelings. I continue my perusal, but don’t see anything alarming. So I stop and we step into the shower with Isabella.
“We’re so sorry for everything, baby. We shouldn’t have let you go like that,” Isabella states, lathering the shea butter and warm vanilla body wash onto a loofah as she rubs it all over Catalina’s back. I place a chaste kiss on Catalina’s lips, grab another loofah filled with body wash, and wash her front. I pinch her nipples, hitting her piercings, causing her to elicit a moan from the sensation.
“I just needed time. I didn’t want to say anything I’d regret, so I left. Your brother called and texted at the perfect moment, so I took that as a chance to not get into it with my best friends and loves,” Catalina replies.
