When I found out, I went to talk with him.

Months of negotiations have landed us here. Vitale gets his shit through our gates. I get a healthy cut. He provides the manpower while I take down my father.

And for that last bit, he gets Mia.

For life.

“Small glitch, but I’ll sort it,” I reply.

“What kind of glitch? I want the girl, Mancini,” Vitale growls through the phone.

I must tell him. Joe said the announcement was going to be made this week, so it’s better Vitale hears it from me first.

“She’s engaged to Connor Barrett, the entrepreneur.”

I pull the phone away from my ear as he curses.

“Let’s head home,” I say to my driver, then put the phone back to my ear, hoping the noise is done. “You done?”

“How the fuck are you going to sort that out? Barrett isn’t some guy. He’s...him,” Vitale says.

I know.

I fucking know.

Of all the men for her to choose. Of all the goddamn timing.

“I’m not going after him,” I reply. “You just do your part. I will bring Mia to you, and you will have your fucking wedding.”

Then I hang up.

Salvo Vitale needs to remember I’ll be the Don very soon and keep his tone in check.

“Nathan, call those girls we had over the other night. I need a blowy.”

He pulls out his phone and starts texting. “You got it.”
