Chapter 73

• Eddie Vasco
• Tommy had warned me it was a risk. I knew it, but I couldn’t just walk away from her. Not without knowing if what I was feeling was at all what she was. She was a pull I couldn’t resist, and Nayla alone was my only reason for remaining in New York. I needed to get the hell out of here while the heat was on, but I couldn’t leave her. Not without knowing, without seeing, and without hearing her voice tell me to go. Hell, I knew I was taking a chance she wouldn’t meet me at all, or even bring along the police if she did, but I still had to do it.
• We had paid off enough cops to know that the meeting could happen safely… unless Nayla planned otherwise, but my gut told me she wouldn’t. But I was still nervous as fuck as I paced the room back and forth waiting… waiting.
