Blood and Badge Chapter 51: The New Order
Villa Isabella, Sabine MountainsThree months after the reunionSummer had arrived in the mountains with an intensity few remembered.Elena was in the garden, having coffee with Dante, when the car appeared on the dirt road. It wasn't just any car; it was a pristine black Maserati, escorted by two SUVs with tinted windows.Dante tensed beside her."Were you expecting someone?" Elena asked."No." Dante put down his cup. "But it seems someone is waiting for us."An older man got out of the Maserati, dressed in a suit worth more than most of the cars in town. Behind him, two bodyguards with the cold stares of professionals.Dante recognized the man before he spoke."Don Vittorio," he said, standing up. "I didn't know you were coming."Vittorio Santi smiled, but the smile didn't reach his eyes."It wasn't planned." But times change, Dante. And old enemies sometimes become… how should I put it? Partners?Dante didn't answer. He waited.Vittorio sat in the chair Elena offered him, accepted
Blood and Badge Chapter 50: The Reunion
Villa Isabella, Montes SabinosSpringWinter had passed, leaving behind a renewed world.Elena was in the garden, pruning the red roses, when Bruno began to bark. It wasn't an alert bark, but something different. Something she hadn't heard before.Matteo ran to her."Aunt Elena! There's a woman at the door!"Elena got up slowly, her heart pounding. She didn't know why, but something in Matteo's tone told her this moment was important.She walked to the entrance.And there, standing with the morning sun illuminating her face, was a woman.Dark-haired, around forty years old, with dark eyes, the same eyes Elena saw every morning in the mirror. She wore simple clothes, carried a worn backpack, and held a photograph in her hands.A photograph of three girls: Elena, Sofía, and herself.Valentina.“Hi,” Elena said, her voice trembling. “I’m Valentina. Your sister.”The world stopped.Inside the villaAn hour passed without them speaking, just looking at each other, hugging, crying.Dante re
Blood and Badge Chapter 49: The Last Secret
Villa Isabella, Sabine MountainsOne week after the trip northSofia's letter was framed above the fireplace in the library.Elena had placed it there, next to the photographs of her mother and the other women. A constant reminder of why they fought, why they kept going.Luca had fully integrated. He played with Matteo, helped in the kitchen, and listened to Alessandro's stories. But there was something in his eyes, a shadow that never quite disappeared.That night, as they strolled through the garden, Elena asked him:What aren't you telling me?Luca stopped. He looked at her for a long time.How do you know?Because I know you. Because you're like me. Elena sat down on the stone bench. What is it?Luca hesitated. Then he sat down beside her.Before she died, Sofia gave me something. Something I was supposed to give you if anything happened to her. He took a small box from his pocket. "I couldn't give it to you before. I was afraid."Elena took the box with trembling hands. It was sm
Blood and Badge Chapter 48: Luca's Truth
Villa Isabella, Montes SabinosThree days after Luca's arrivalThe snow had blanketed everything in white.Luca stared out the window of his room, the one that had belonged to Antonio, then Andrea, now his, with an expression Elena couldn't decipher. There was something in his eyes, a mixture of relief and sadness, that reminded her of herself when she first arrived at the villa.Elena entered without knocking."Is everything alright?"Luca turned around. "Yes. Just… processing.""I've been doing this for years. I'm still not finished."Luca smiled. It was a small, shy smile, as if he wasn't used to it."Sofia talked about you a lot." Her voice cracked slightly. "She said you were the best sister in the world. That you would give your life for her."Elena felt a lump in her throat."I would have. If I had known…""You couldn't have known." She didn't want you to know. Luca shook his head. He was afraid. Afraid Salvatore would hurt you too.Why didn't you run away?We tried. We had a p
Blood and Badge Chapter 47: The Ghost of the Past
Villa Isabella, Montes SabinosOne week laterPeace came at a price.Elena learned it when the envelope appeared in the mailbox, no return address, just her name handwritten on it. She opened it in the kitchen, while the coffee cooled on the table.Inside, a photograph.Sofia.Her sister, alive, smiling, in a place Elena didn't recognize. A plaza, a fountain, pigeons. The date on the back: three days before her death.And a note:"Do you remember when you were happy? I do. And I'm going to make sure you never are again."Elena felt the world stop.Dante appeared beside her. What's wrong?Elena wordlessly handed him the photo.Dante looked at her; his expression hardened.Who?I don't know. But he knows things. Things that only… Elena stopped. Only someone very close could know.One of us?I don't know.The investigationThey gathered everyone in the library.The photo was passed around. No one recognized her. No one knew anything."It has to be someone on the inside," Antonio said. So
Blood and Badge Chapter 46: The Weight of Peace
Villa Isabella, Montes SabinosThree weeks after the farmWinter had arrived in the mountains.Elena watched the snow fall from the library window, a steaming cup of tea in her hands. Everything was calm. Too calm, perhaps.Dante entered silently and stood beside her.Thinking?Always.He smiled. About what?About how quickly everything changes. A year ago we were fleeing, fighting, surviving. And now… He gestured to the snow-covered garden. This.Are you bored?No. It scares me. Peace has always scared me more than war.Dante hugged her from behind. I know. Me too. But we can learn.Elena rested her head on his chest.Yes. We can.The morningMatteo burst into the room with Bruno hot on his heels.Aunt Elena! Uncle Dante! There's a man at the door!Elena tensed. What man?I don't know him. He says his name is Roberto.Dante and Elena exchanged a glance.Is he alone?Yes. And he has a rose. But it's red.Elena let out the breath she hadn't realized she'd been holding.Come downstairs
