Albert can solve two problems with one girl, so he said yes.
Enzo and I love Christina and she loves us, and I will personally kill anyone who touches her.
What a fucking mess.
As desperate as everything seems, I know that there has to be a solution. It’s so close that I can taste it on my tongue.
If only I could put the thoughts into words, and those words into place.
My heart beats harder and I stare out my bedroom windows. The distant city lights are barely visible. I can feel the fatigue in my mind and body. I roll my shoulders, trying to work out some of the tension consuming me.
The only thing I know right now, with absolute certainty, is that I won’t let Christina go.
If I could walk away from all of this, right now, and keep her safe – I would.
But there’s no walking away from the Mafia. I was born into this life, blooded in, and I’ll die in it.
Enzo too.
I’m the future Don of the Venitti family. I might not yet be respected, but I am feared, and it’s enough of a start. There is nothing I wouldn’t do for Christina.
According to Alec and Enzo, the Cosa’s are involved in the recent supply issues. If we have proof, we can take it to my father, but without it, we’re shit out of luck.
Jimmy Senior is old school but he’s also extremely rigid and intentional in his actions. He doesn’t do anything without a valid reason.
Jimmy Junior is a fuckwit of the first order, but he’s got a future ahead of him. Marriage and to a Venitti at that, shouldn’t be on the table yet.
Yes, Christina is stunning. If you ask me, she’s the most stunning woman to ever exist.
But why now? What is it about her that makes Jimmy Senior so anxious to marry his heir off at the ripe old age of 20?
Alec has been asking around and we found out that the first attack was because Lorenzo Cossi got pissed when Antonia told him we slighted her. It was supposed to be a message. A shot across the bow.
And that would have sufficed, had it only been the one attack. But there have been three now, plus the death of one of our men.
Somehow, the Cosas must have convinced the Cossis that there was an opportunity here to consolidate power and take us out, while still maintaining the Venitti name through Christina.
Using our girl as an incubator to breed the next generation that would have a claim to two family’s power.
Once I get to the bottom of this, I will never forget it nor allow anyone to forget this.
I hear movement in the room next to us and my heart clenches. Christina. Like a lovesick creeper, I listen as she moves around the room, opening and closing drawers and then entering our shared bathroom.
Her routine is adorably predictable. I glance at my watch, noting that it’s only 10 PM.
Right on time.
In the short while that we’ve lived together, I’ve learned that Christina has an extensive morning beauty routine, she prefers a satin pillowcase to protect her hair, she always does yoga when she wants to calm down, and she always takes a shower at night.
