As I'm about to succumb to sleep myself, a buzzing noise jars me awake. Squinting in the dim light, I see Molly's phone light up on her nightstand. An unknown number flashes across the screen. She stirs, groggy and disoriented."Who the hell?" she mutters as she picks up the phone and swipes to answer. "Hello," she says, her voice thick with sleep. "Yes." Suddenly, she's sitting bolt upright in bed, fully awake. "What? Oh my god, is she all right?"I sit up next to her, my heart hammering in my chest. "Babe, what is it?" I ask urgently."What hospital?" Molly asks into the phone. My mind races—could it be her mom?"Presbyterian, okay, I got it; I'm on my way." She leaps out of bed and dashes for the bathroom.I'm fast on her heels. "Molly, what's going on? Talk to me.""It's Lexi," she cries out between sobs. "She was attacked in her apartment. Drew just got in from a late flight and found her place wrecked and Lexi on the floor unconscious. She hasn't come to yet." Her voice breaks a

I tap my fingers on the desk, a rhythmic drumming that matches the pulse of my thoughts. Sebastian slides the obituary across the mahogany surface, and my eyes lock onto the printed words, a stark contrast to the polished wood. Carson Donovan—dead in a car accident. If this is true, it means the bastard behind the attacks on my empire is gone. But I don't let myself get too comfortable; time will be the judge of Sebastian's information.A week has passed since my office on the docks was blown sky-high. It's been quiet since then—no new threats, no suspicious movements. So far so good. It's a delicate peace, one that I'm not taking for granted.The thought of Molly, six weeks pregnant and glowing with life, is what steadies me now. She's embraced this world of mine with eyes wide open, accepting the darkness that lingers at the edges of our life together. The fact that she's excited about our family—the light in her eyes when she talks about our future—it's more than I could have hoped

The sunlight filters through the canopy of trees, casting dappled shadows on the park bench where Alexandra and I sit, our lunch spread between us. It's one of those rare days when the breeze carries just a hint of summer's promise, but the weight of my news seems to shift the air around us, making it heavy with unspoken words."You're what?" Alexandra's voice breaks through the calm, her face contorting in disbelief. "Jesus, Molly. Marrying him was one thing, but you let yourself get knocked up?"I shift uncomfortably on the bench, trying to maintain my composure under her piercing gaze. "I don't think you refer to it as knocked up if you're married to the father," I reply, my tone edged with a hint of defensiveness.Alexandra's expression morphs from shock to livid disbelief. "You've only been married for three months, to a mafia boss, mind you. It didn't occur to you to wait before bringing an innocent child into his violent world?" Her head drops into her hands as if she can't bea

The moment I hung up the phone with Sebastian Petrosky, a shift settled over my world like a new coat of paint, fresh and promising. His assurances weren't just hot air; they were as solid as the concrete foundations of my office on the docks. The attacks against my business operations had stopped, and clients were rolling in with the tide, each one fattening my accounts, bringing me closer to smoothing over the financial hits I'd taken. The sting of losing good men never fades, but vengeance is a dish best served cold and by my own hand.Things with Molly ... were shaping up better than I ever could've hoped. She'd slid into New York life like she was born to it. Not a hint of resentment about leaving her DA gig or trading Carolina blue skies for the steel and glass canyons of my city. Watching her lay down roots, planning for the law practice she's building from scratch – it was like watching someone play a high-stakes game of poker with a royal flush in hand. And that house we're a

Declan phoned that he’d be out later than expected and would I mind handling supper for us. I was only too happy to take some of the burden off his day. He’s been rather stressed of late and he’s doing his level best to hide it from me. But I have all the confidence in the world in Declan and know he’ll get his business issues under control.So, once I got home, I set to work in the kitchen. I'd smothered roasted chicken in succulent garlic and herbs, seared juicy asparagus, and mashed potatoes so creamy they melted in your mouth. The table was set with a lovely burgundy tablecloth and lit softly with flickering candles. I propped a bottle of his favorite Bordeaux next to his chair so it would have time to breathe.When Declan walked in with his suit rumpled, his tie undone, and the pent-up fury etched across his face, my heart sank. I couldn't begrudge him for bringing his work home. He was a man who carried the weight of the world on his shoulders. But I wanted to give him a repriev

The next few weeks pass fairly uneventfully. Molly and I have been house shopping - we're out visiting our 4th home out on Long Island when I receive the call. My phone vibrates in my pocket as I'm admiring the master bedroom's walk-in closet with Molly. I pull it out and see it's Tommy, one of my capos. "Yeah?" I answer."Boss, we got a situation," Tommy says, a nervous edge to his voice. "Duncan caught one in the chest during a meet-up with the Albanians over on Shore Road. He's been rushed to Mercy Hospital but it ain't looking good.""What the hell happened?" I demand. We had a decent truce going with the Albanians. Shore Road was neutral territory. "Not sure yet boss. Word is the meet went south and shots rang out. Two of theirs for our one, but still, it's not good."I clench my jaw, mind racing. First, those hits on my shipments last month where two of my best men got clipped, and now this? "Find out exactly what went down, you hear me?" I order. "I want the name of the Alba
