Chapter 11

Dominic

“Rabe?” Carmella yells from the other end of the line and it sounds like she’s furning.

It’s so unexpected that I rise to my feet and rub my temples. She’s not supposed to be out there during the day.

“Why do you have Vanessa’s phone!” I’m unable to hide my surprise.

“Does it matter why I have it? And why are you calling her?”

“Give me back my phone!” Vanessa’s yelling chimes in from the background.

I’m not even able to ask how things ended up that way because there’s a series of heavy grunting from both of them and what sounds like a struggle. Then, the call ends abruptly.

Not wanting things to escalate between the two of them, I leave my phone and rush outside. The house is so big that despite being as fast as my legs can carry me, it takes me a while.

When I come outside. I spot them from a distance. Carmella’s holding up her hand with Vanessa’s phone, which she’s trying to reach for

I shake my head as I rush over there before it can get messy between them. My father would kill me if he were to spot even a single scratch on Vanessa.

Carmella mischievously laughs as she jumps everytime Vanessa tries to reach for her phone. I can tell that Vanessa’s holding back so she doesn’t get physical. She even sees me but that doesn’t stop her from trying to get her phone.

As I get closer, Carmella doesn’t even notice me since she’s facing the other side,

When I stand right behind her, despite her standing on her tippy toes to keep Vanessa’s phone, I easily grab onto her wrists and she gets a little shorter as she places her feet flat on the ground and looks back at me.

“What do you think you’re doing?” I’m so annoyed by Carmella’s conduct that my tone is low and a little threatening.

“Babe, she was she was-”

“Give the phone back to Vanessa.

“But-”

“Now.”

She scoffs as she gives it back to Vanessa. I don’t even want to know how the phone ended up with Carmella.

As my eyes dart between the two of them, they linger on Vanessa because I’ve never seen her so upset.
