"Curiosity kills more than cats in my world," Dante said. His voice was dangerously soft as his fingers wrapped around my wrist firmly.

My heart hammered against my ribs as I contemplated my situation. I had crossed a line, and we both knew it. The question was what Dante would do about it.

His dark eyes studied me for a long moment, and I just stood there, holding my breath as I thought about what he would do. Then, to my surprise, he moved my hand away from the panel and pressed his own palm against it instead. There was a faint click, followed by the quiet beep of the keypad as he entered a code.

"What are you doing?" I whispered, more out of shock than anything.

"Satisfying your curiosity,” was all he said. The safe door swung open. "Since you're so determined to know my secrets, let's get it over with once and for all."

He stepped aside, allowing me to see the contents of the safe. Stacks of cash were neatly arranged on one shelf. It was more money than I had eve

    DANTE"There's a third option,” I said."Which is?""I stop you."Elena laughed. "With what? You're outnumbered twenty to one.""Maybe, but I'm not alone."Just then, the doors to the stairs burst open and Sofia came in, followed by Agent Harrison and some FBI agents."Elena Vasquez," Harrison called out. "You're under arrest."Elena's face went pale. "How did you find me?""Your companies weren't as well hidden as you thought," Sofia said. "We've been tracking your financial records for days."But Elena recovered quickly. She held up the detonator again. "It doesn't matter now. If anyone moves, I'll blow this whole floor to pieces.""Put down the remote," Harrison said. "We can work this out.""Work it out? Like you worked it out when Diego died?" she replied."Mrs. Vasquez, I understand you're angry about your husband's death, but this isn't the way to go about it.""This is the only way,” she replied hotly.I could see that Elena was getting desperate. And desperate people did stup

    DANTEI knew something was wrong the moment we pulled into the hospital parking lot.There were too many cars for this time of day. There were black SUVs parked in spots that should have been empty. Some men in suits were standing around trying to look casual but they were failing."Marcus, do you see this?" I asked as we got out of my car."Yeah. They’re most definitely Elena's people.""How many do you think?"Marcus looked around the parking lot. "There are at least a dozen out here, and probably more inside."We walked toward the main entrance, and I could see more of Elena's men standing near the doors. They weren't trying to hide anymore."Dante," Marcus said quietly. "We need more men.""There’s no time. Flora's up there."As we approached the entrance doors, two men in suits stepped forward to block our path."The hospital's been closed for maintenance," one of them said."Since when?" I asked."Since today. You'll have to come back tomorrow,” he replied.I looked at Marcus. H

    FLORA"Because of your husband, right?" I said."Ah, so you know about Diego. Good. That saves us some time.""Marcus told us he died in Prague."Elena's expression darkened. "Diego didn't just die, Flora. He was murdered. He was burned alive in a Romano warehouse fire."Suddenly, I felt my baby kick as if it sensed the tension in the room."That wasn't Dante's fault," I said."Wasn't it?" Elena questioned. Then she stood up and walked to the window. "Antonio Romano sent my husband into that warehouse knowing it was a trap. He used Diego as bait to catch his enemies, and when the building went up in flames, he left my husband to die.""You don't know that for sure,” I argued.When Elena turned back to me, her eyes were filled with rage. "I know because one of Antonio's men told me. Right before I killed him."The room went silent. Even Sofia stopped moving."You killed someone?" Sofia asked."I've killed several people, actually. All of them were connected to the Romano family in some

    FLORAI woke up to the sound of unfamiliar voices outside my hospital room. It was early in the morning, and the light coming through the window was still dim. Sofia was asleep in the chair next to my bed, but her head was tilted at an awkward angle.Something felt off.I couldn't put my finger on what exactly was wrong, but the atmosphere in the hospital seemed different. The voices in the hallway were speaking in hushed tones, and I could hear more movement than usual for this time of day."Sofia," I whispered. She stirred but didn't wake up."Sofia," I called out a little louder.Her eyes opened slowly. "Flora? What time is it?""I don't know. But something is wrong."Sofia sat up straighter and looked around the room. "What do you mean?""Listen."We both stayed quiet for a moment. The voices outside were definitely not the usual hospital staff. They sounded more official, and more serious too."Where are Dante's security guys?" I asked.Sofia's eyes widened. "They should be right

    DANTE"And you're the most important thing in mine. Which is why I can't let you face this alone,” Flora said."I won't be alone. I'll have Marcus, Sofia, and the whole family.""But you won't have me. And Dante, we're stronger together. We always have been."I knew she was right. But I also knew that if something happened to her because I let her get involved in this mess, I would never forgive myself."What if we compromise?" I said finally."What kind of compromise?""You stay here, in the hospital, where I can make sure you're safe. But I'll keep you informed about everything that's happening."Flora considered this. "And do I get to give my input on the plans?""Within reason, yes.""And if things get really bad, you'll let me help?" she asked."Flora...""Dante, I'm serious. If Elena is really planning something as big as Marcus thinks, you're going to need all the help you can get."I sighed. "Fine. But only if the doctor says it's safe,” I said."Deal,” she replied.I kissed h

    DANTEThe words hit me like a punch to the stomach."What do you mean she could lose the baby?" I asked Dr. Gary. My voice came out rougher than I meant it to.Flora's face went white. I could see her hands shaking as she put them on her stomach."If her blood pressure continues to spike like this, it could cause a condition called preeclampsia. In severe cases, it can be really life-threatening for both the mother and the baby," Dr. Gary explained. "That's why complete bed rest is so important right now.""How long do I have to be on bed rest?" Flora asked quietly."At least a month, but maybe longer than that, depending on how you respond to the treatment."I watched Flora's face crumble. A month of bed rest meant a month of not being able to help with the A.P. situation. It also meant a month of feeling helpless while someone threatened our family."I can't do that," Flora said. "There's too much happening right now.""Flora," I started, but she cut me off."No, Dante. You don't un
