Darius looked away then looked back into her eyes. “It seems as though my assistant made a mistake. The man I’m after is Alessandro.”

Harmony couldn’t believe what she was hearing. She wasn’t surprised that disgusting fucker had gotten into some trouble. “My sister’s boyfriend?”

“Yes.”

Now she was angry. She was angry that Sofia ever got into a relationship with that creep in the first place. She warned her about fucking him, and now look. Once again Sofia and her stupidity got her into a mess.

Harmony huffed and threw her arms. “This is just fucking great.”

“I understand you’re upset…”

Harmony held up her hand and cut Darius off. “It’s notyou.It’s this whole situation. My sister constantly fucks up her lifeandmine because she lacks enough cognitive development to do anything right.”

She wanted to let the hot tears flow down her face, but she was stronger than that. And she certainly wasn’t going to look vulnerable in front of him. Quickly wiping her eyes, she looked back up at him.

“What did he do that you want to kill him?”

“Simple. He harmed a Don’s daughter. Raped her.”

Suddenly, it clicked. He was a mastersicario.

“Who do you work for?”

“No one.”

He was quick to answer.

“It was Paola Tagliatti, wasn’t it?”

Darius stood silent, watching her.

“Yes,” he finally admitted.

Harmony shook her head. “Fucking knew it.”

“Care to share?” He quipped.

Harmony looked away, tapping her foot. She didn’t know if she should be telling Darius all of this, but something in her Sicilian gut told her it was the right thing.

“I don’t know anything outside of what my sister mentioned. The son of a bitch mentioned to her a few times if she didn’t ‘act right’, he’d do to her like he did Paola. Funny enough, Paola is an old friend from college. We met in our freshman year. She called me the night he raped her.”

Darius stood listening to her story about how Paola begged her to come to Chicago to stay with her and help her tell her father. She was very close with Don Tagliatti, he even saw her as his adopted daughter.

“When Sofia got involved with him, I didn’t know it was the same person. Not until he mentioned Paola, and I called her up, asking her thatcazzo’sname. She told me it was Alessandro, my sister’s new boyfriend. I tried to get her to leave him, telling her he was no good. She didn’t listen. She doesn’t know he’s been cheating on her, and I see the bruises he leaves on her.”

Darius lowered his eyes. “I’m sorry you got mixed up in this.”

Harmony waved her hand. “It’s done.”

Harmony watched as he stood for a moment, then turned to walk away.

“Darius.” She called.

He turned back around to face her.

“What if I help you find him?”

Darius
