FYNN

She stares at me,agog. I know it’s pretty startling news, that one person could be behind all of this shit that’s been going down, but it’s now what we know to be true.

There is no hiding it.

Il Diavolo.

Without giving her too many details, she deserves to know where we’re at. She is involved, no matter how much I try to pretend she isn’t.

It seems these fuckers will stop at nothing, and the last thing I want is Sage being targeted, she’s been through enough. It could even be a risk for me coming here. But little does she know, I have two guys with me, one back at the car, and one outside her front door. We are not taking any precautions anymore.

Angelo has declared war. And this is how it has to be.

The warehouse was rough. Angelo is out for blood, any way he can get it.

If our meeting with Orlando Rodriguez is anything to go by, it seems we’re getting closer and closer to discovering the truth. Piece by piece in this intricate game.

I didn’t want to be around her like this, after coming from the warehouse with the scent of blood on my skin. But Angelo has since declared that Sage will also be under the protection wing of Medici securities. That’s why I’m here.

I’m the sucker who has to deliver the news.

It’s not a bad thing, as I want to keep her safe. But losing her scares me.

We’re on the lookout wherever we go; it’s become no way to live.

Always worrying about our mother, sister, and loved ones.

I agree with Angelo. The time has come for us to take back our power and show them who fucking rule this city. And it ain’t them.

The time has come to be ruthless.

We will find Il Diavolo. And any other fuckers involved who we haven’t already severed.

Then we will kill him, and put an end to all of this.

I want to move on in life with Sage, if she’ll have me, but we can’t have this hanging over us.

I’m not the dirty bastard she seems to think I am. The moment I decided that she’s going to be mine, I kept my dick in my pants and that’s where it’s going to stay. Until she’ll let me in.

I’ve gone with the flow for most of my adult life, wherever the wind blew me, and for a time, I was happy enough with that. But things have changed rapidly. My brother was shot. Enzo was almost killed a few months ago by Katiya’s father, who Valentina shot before he could turn the gun on her.

Angelo had to fake his own fucking death six months ago, and Rocco was almost blown to smithereens.

That could have been any of us in the vehicle.

Like Angelo pointed out, we never travel together like that, but more than likely, Dante and I would have been killed in that car.

I glance at Sage.

I can see she’s relaxed, sitting here with me, drinking her wine and eating her fries. She has no idea of the thoughts running through my head and how much I want her.

“Who do you think this person is, who’s put the bounty out?”

I give her a look.

She shrugs. “You hear all kinds of stuff in emergency.”
