Greg stared at Spade mortified as he couldn't say anything else. Spade leaned away from him and shoved his hands into his pants pocket, staring down at the man in front of him with great contempt and anger.

"I'm going to ask you a question Greg, and you're going to answer, or you die, well you're going to die anyway but I'll make it less painful" Spade muttered, seeing the way Greg's eyes moved from him to Matteo, he wasn't that much scared anymore and that smug look was slowly returning to his face.

"Where is Nate"? He asked, seeing the way Greg's face morphed into one of confusion as he frowned and looked from Spade to Matteo for the tenth time since both of them had been standing there

"Why are you asking me that? You should know where he is, since he's sucking your dick now" he finished with a smirk and this made Spade to clench his hands beside him, before he took a swing to Greg's face.

Whipping it to the side, as he groaned and blood splattered out of his mouth, Spade heard the crack of his jaw and it made him proud before he gripped Greg's face and turned him to look at him.

Greg started laughing, blood spluttering out of his mouth, making Spade to grind his teeth together, he was slowly feeling his cool slip out of him "I'm not going to ask you again Greg, where is Nate"? He growled out and Greg just chuckled before he moved his face even closer to Spade

"I don't know where your whimp of a boyfriend is" Greg muttered out, his breath fanning Spade's face, and Spade just lost the little control he had before he gripped Greg's collar as he hauled him closer, he punched him on the face, hearing the crack of his nose, he didn't stop as he kept delivering punches, coating his knuckles with blood, as he saw how he was destroying Greg's face, he was seeing nothing but rage, pure rage

He felt as if he could imagine everytime this man put his hands on Nate, and this was him fighting for the man he had fallen in love with, but he felt as if he was not doing enough.

"Spade, Spade" he heard Matteo's voice behind him, until the man grabbed him "Gio" he yelled out pushing Spade away from bleeding Greg as he stood in between them

Spade's chest rose and fall as all the rage was going down and he could see now what he had done to Greg "You're going to kill him" Matteo muttered, looking at Spade "Don't kill him before we can find out where Nate is" Matteo explained before he pushed Spade back slowly "Come on, let's get out of here" he said, before he turned around and looked at Greg who had a bloodied face and that stupid smirk on his face

"I'll be waiting for you Spade" he taunted out and Spade clenched his jaw before he stepped out of the place "and you too Matteo" he added, making the blonde to glare at him before he walked out of the cell, shutting the door and locking it

Spade took long strides as he walked away from the place and headed towards his office, Matteo followed behind him.

He lost it just now, and he almost killed Greg, he would have if Matteo wasn't there to stop him. He just couldn't hold on any longer, he knew now what Greg had done to Nate, and how the man had made him forsake and hurt the man he'd fallen in love with. He just couldn't stop himself.

He was highly even doubting the fact that Greg didn't know about the abuse the other man had caused Nate, maybe it was all part of his own elaborate plan, and then their mother dying by the hands of Nate's abuser.

Spade had a rough life growing up but Nate had it even much worse, at least Spade's father didn't hand him over to a rapist, Greg practically dragged his son by the wrist, an 11 year old kid, and handed him over to a fucking rapist.

He walked into his office without even knocking and immediately sensed the tension in the room, he looked from Su who was sitting on one side of the couch, and then landed on Bernie who sat on the other side facing her.

He quickly looked away from her before he looked at Spade, he sprang up from the couch "boss" he muttered, Spade just ignored him, walking towards the table, he rested his hands on the surface of the wood, breathing hard.

Matteo followed right behind him, his eyes landing on Bernie then Su, before they landed on Spade who was hunched over the table, Matteo could see the difficulty Spade was in, he looked back at Bernie.

"Bernie" he called, causing the man to look at him before he nudged his head towards the door, and the man's eyes lit up as he quickly understood what Matteo was talking about, he just looked at Su one more time before he walked out of the office.

Leaving all three of them there, with Spade still hunched over the table, Matteo walked towards him "Gio" he called out "are you okay"? He asked, Spade didn't say anything, he just stayed there breathing hard, as his whole body fell and rose with each breath took.

He slowly looked up at Matteo and his eyes held so much pain that Matteo could actually feel it in his own bones how this had affected Spade, he sighed out before he looked at Su who was looking at Spade with concern in her eyes.

Her eyes moved from Spade to Matteo as her eyes silently spoke to him, which kind of shocked him because asides Spade, no one had ever been able to do that.

He shook his head and saw the way her shoulders slumped in defeat, he sighed out before he saw Spade moved beside him, the man turned around, now leaning his back on the table, before he let out a deep breath.

"He didn't talk" Spade muttered, feeling his own heart break. He wished he didn't have to feel this way, helpless and vulnerable.

He looked up and sighed out Where are you Nate? He asked himself shutting his eyes tight.

*****

Spade had offered Su his house for her to sleep in, since she didn't really have a place to stay, after she said she couldn't stay at her father's house, it'll only remind her of Nate and other bad memories.

Spade stayed at the mansion, like he'd been doing for the past two weeks, leaving her in the house alone. He also didn't think he had it in him to sleep in the house, it would only intensify his pains and guilt.

He had rushed out of the house after talking to Su and telling her that she could come to the club later if she wanted to, he didn't want to stay back at the mansion, he'd end up overthinking and wallowing in guilt and self loath.

He had a meeting with his men, asking them to keep an eye out for Nate, a few of them heard of what happened between himself and Nate, but they didn't know about Greg and the other stuff, he didn't think Nate would appreciate Spade spreading his business like that, even Bernie didn't really know what had happened, he only knew they had Greg with them for Nate's disappearance and that was it.

Spade still wasn't satisfied with just telling his men to keep an eye out for Nate, he'd called a few allies whom were still loyal to him, to look into it, like Carlos, he'd asked the police to look at missing person's cases and any unusual activity around town

He'd also had Matteo look at the CCTV in Nate's apartment, they'd gone through it so many times but there was nothing, all they got was Nate leaving his apartment that night and that was it, he didn't come back.

Spade was already frustrated and so fucking angry, he hoped no one got into it with him today, because he would take out his anger on them

He'd just stepped out of the meeting room at the club, with Matteo by his side, they walked towards his office, his mind went back to the conversation he had with Greg earlier that day, the man was still very adamant on the fact that he didn't know where Nate was, even after Spade had let him in on the fact that he knew everything Greg had done to Nate.

His persistent made Spade so angry that he broke his nose again and a couple of his fingers, before Matteo had practically pried him off the man who had been bleeding profusely.

He didn't know how he was going to tell Su that Greg still didn't want to say anything, even he didn't want to believe that he still hadn't beaten the answers out of Greg. He was angry at himself the most.

They call him the devil, yet he couldn't even protect the man he loves, right in front of his nose, Nate was taken, he clenched his jaw when he turned through the corridor of his office, but slowly cussed out when he saw Salvatore walking towards him, after that day he'd met the man in front of that store with Nate, he hadn't seen him again.

What the hell was he doing here, when his own eyes met Spade, he kind of froze and his face became nervous and uneasy as he stopped in front of Spade and Matteo, his eyes darting between each man

"Spade" he muttered with an uneasy smile, Spade's face just looked blank and bored as he stared back at Salvatore "Bernie told me you were in a meeting" he rushed out, slowly shifting his weight around, but Spade didn't care if his facial expression was making the man uncomfortable.

"Salvatore" he gritted out "what brings you here"? He asked, seeing as the man frowned and looked back as if he was looking for someone, before he looked back at Matteo and the Spade, everything about him was, so uneasy and he was fretting, but Spade was already used to people fretting around him.

"Oh uhm... I just uh... I came into town for business" he rushed out, almost unsure of himself, before he smiled, a smile that definitely didn't reach his eyes "my client told me to meet them here at the backroom of your club, so I'm headed there now" he finished, already bypassing Spade as the man just narrowed his eyes at Salvatore.

Spade gritted his teeth together, not sparing his uncle another glance, he walked away from him and headed towards his office, he stepped inside and so did Matteo.

Immediately meeting their eyes on Bernie and Su, he had been the one to pick her up from Spade's house, she wasn't really dressed that flashy or flamboyantly, she was putting on white pants and a blank top, her shirt hair resting on her shoulder, Spade noticed she'd cut it, it was shorter than when they'd just met, and the hair was no longer red in color but black, with red highlights at the tip.

She sat on the couch, just like the previous day with Bernie on the other side of the couch, who quickly lowered his head in respect to Spade "boss" he spoke up and Spade just waved him off before he walked towards the table, he sat on his chair and Matteo assumed the position on the other chair in front of Spade's table, making him sit directly in front of Su

"Hi" she whispered out to Matteo who just smiled at her

"Hey" he muttered, she didn't really say anything to Spade as she'd seen the man earlier that say at the mansion "How you holding up"? He asked and she just shrugged, bitting her lip, making Spade almost smirk at her obliviousness, if only she knew she was flirting with her brother.

"I'm doing better than I expected" she muttered before her eyes found Spade again "any luck"? She asked and he just sighed out, leaving the sister brother duo and focusing back on the problem he had at hand

"No, he doesn't want to talk and Matteo keeps stopping me from killing him" Spade gritted out as he turned to look at the blonde who rolled his eyes at him.

"If you kill him, we'll never find Nate"

Spade sighed out and gritted his teeth together "Let me talk to him" they both whipped their head at her

"No"

"No"

Both Spade and Matteo had yelled out together, making her raise her brows at them and sighing out "We can't let you go see him, if indeed he knows where Nate is and he knows you're safe and with us, he'll never tell us where Nate is" Matteo explained before Spade added his own

"What makes you think he's going to talk to you, that man is as stubborn as stone"? Spade said, feeling his anger from the morning he'd talked to Greg return, his chest burning with nothing but rage, pure rage.

Su gave him a pointed look "he's my father remember, if he's going to talk to anyone then it would be me" she explained to them, watching them closely as they both exchange questioning looks.

They both understood that she was right, but it was a risky call, but was it worth it? Matteo shrugged and Spade clenched his jaw, already knowing the blonde's answer

He sighed out and turned to look at Su "Fine"
