SHOT 9 — This Body Is No Alibi
publish date:
2026-04-10 21:23:11Milan burned below Elena’s window.
She didn’t see it. Her back rested against the frame, her gaze somewhere inside the dark of her own room, chasing a shape that existed only as absence.
The gelato Lorenzo had handed her hours ago—sweet, unhurried, ordinary—was long gone from her tongue. What remained was the bitterness of a truth she hadn’t asked for.
Dante was trying to get clean.
Three years of shell companies. Seventy million dolla

BLOOD & JUSTICE SHOT 69 — Natural Nine
In the labyrinth of Elena’s mind, the numbers had been falling into formation since the fourth card changed hands. She’d already mapped the probability distribution from a half-spent deck, tracked the shift in Luca’s betting rhythm across three rounds, and arrived at a cold conclusion that was simply waiting for the right moment to be executed.Luca Ferrantelli played with the arrogance of a man who had forgotten what it felt like to lose. Men like that were always the most fragile prey.“This round,” Dante murmured, his breath grazing the shell of Elena’s ear, “finish him.”Elena gave no sign of agreement. Didn’t even blink. They had long since moved past the stage where confirmation required a sound.Her fingers reached toward the card box with a deliberate flash of hesitation—a visual performance designed to convince everyone at the table that she was nothing more than decorative, a woman far
BLOOD & JUSTICE SHOT 68 — Before I Gouge Out Your Eyes
The Salon Privés of the Casino de Monte-Carlo operated on a single unwritten law, worn into its velvet carpet through decades of quiet ruin: the most dangerous people in the room were always the ones who received their losses with a straight spine and a steady breath.Elena locked that understanding into place the moment her heels struck the heavy mahogany threshold. The baccarat tables had been arranged with an intimidating precision—row upon row, leaving just enough aisle space for two bodies to pass each other without shifting their shoulders. Above them, amber light smoked through the air, engineered specifically to kill the awareness that a different world was spinning outside on a different clock. The air was thick with premium tobacco, bespoke cologne, and something older beneath it all—a residue that existed in places like this: ambition handed down so many generations it had started to smell like authority.Dante stopped three meters from th
BLOOD & JUSTICE SHOT 67 — Among Monaco Lights
Dante stood in the middle of the foyer, his black overcoat still hanging loose from his shoulders. His right hand drained the last of the wine from his glass while his eyes read the time with an intimidating precision. The wall clock had drifted twelve minutes past the estimate he had built inside his own head.At that exact moment, the door opened. His eyes found Elena immediately.Two seconds.Three.Something formless flickered across the empty space between them—before Dante severed that contact and redirected his gaze to Lorenzo. One eyebrow rose slightly. A silent demand.Lorenzo slid both hands into his trouser pockets. His shoulders dropped, relaxed, bearing no resemblance whatsoever to a man who had just spent the evening managing two women at a police station. “Traffic.”Dante didn’t blink. “Where?”“Brera.”“Navigli is packed tonight,” Dante said flatly.“Exactly.”Dante returned his
BLOOD & JUSTICE SHOT 66 — Fog Never Testifies
Two women stepped out of a black SUV in front of the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II carrying an atmosphere too deliberate for ten in the morning.Elena stepped out first. Cream wool coat cinched at the waist, dark auburn hair in a low chignon with two strands left loose to frame her cheekbones—a detail that had required a precise fifteen minutes in front of a mirror. Behind her, Suede Brown wore a cream dress beneath a long camel coat, its hem falling exactly two centimeters shorter than Elena’s. A small cream ribbon in her contrasting black hair. Her gaze was flat, composed—and if anyone held it for more than three seconds, they’d catch something behind her eyes that refused to bend to the coquette aesthetic. A discipline born in training barracks, not inherited drawing rooms.Dante’s bodyguard stood three meters back, arms folded, wearing the expression of a man who had missed breakfast and considered happiness an additional work assignme
BLOOD & JUSTICE SHOT 65 — Dante and the Missing Sea
Life had never been kind enough to offer the grieving a pause.One week after the soil above Nonna Sveta’s grave had packed and hardened, the Salvatore mansion reclaimed its heartbeat. Since before dawn, the corridors hummed with the measured rhythm of staff who had learned never to waste a step. The dense aroma of espresso crept upward through curling steam, brushing against the smell of gun oil as guards exchanged posts on schedule. The world moved forward to a tempo no one could renegotiate—as if grief were a license with a strict expiration date, and today, the clock had run out.But Elena knew how to read this house.There was a fundamental difference between a home that had truly made peace with loss and one performing as though everything was fine. In the first kind, you found silence—soft and fragile—tucked into the corners of rooms. In the second, that stillness felt like paint forced to dry overnight. The Salvatore mansion today
BLOOD & JUSTICE SHOT 64 — What Stayed After the Funeral
Dante had been rooted in front of his study window since six in the morning.Four hours. His feet anchored to the floor, shoulders locked, eyes fixed on one point in the back garden. Outside, the leaves of the old oak moved lazily in the wind, as though the earth had received no word that yesterday a permanent axis had snapped somewhere inside this mansion. The trees kept swaying. The world had not stopped spinning just because one life had reached its end.The world was never designed to care.The funeral yesterday had taken place beneath a half-hearted gray sky—the kind that refused to release rain yet wouldn’t allow sunlight through. At his side, Lorenzo had wept without pause from the moment the silver coffin was lifted until the first clumps of earth buried its surface. Even this morning, as Dante passed, the sound of sobbing still filtered from behind his brother’s bedroom door. Dante had stopped. His hand had hovered in the air, poised t
