Diavolo Ch 05

... feet fast. Abigail was special. Unlike most girls he met, he was sure she was the one for him, but he needed to proceed with utmost care so as not to frighten her away. His career might put her off, but he’d work at making it all up to her by trying to provide as normal a home life as possible. Gabriel blinked in surprise at the direction of his thoughts. Was he actually thinking of taking the big step with Abigail? A real relationship… marriage? Nervous sweat broke out on his forehead. He needed to get to know her first. He didn’t want to make the same mistake Michael had. Erica seemed sweet if a little quirky on the outside, but the guys from the band knew the truth about Erica.

The doctor had told him that he eventually might remember, but that it would not be unusual for that memory to never resurface. He didn’t want to put Abigail in danger if some crazed fan was after him. Of course, it could very well have been anyone in the Montenegro household. Paulina certainly had the money to put out a contract on him. Mikayla was pissed off enough to have tried to run him off the road. The hateful looks she’d given him earlier attested to that. Maybe it had been Abigail’s own mother. The woman gave him venomous looks all night during the dinner at the house. As for his brother? Daniel’s acceptance of him felt strange somehow. He treated Gabriel like some poor cast off mongrel that needed rescuing. The man had talked incessantly about how wonderful signing a contract with North Star would be.
