Lorenzo sat in his study.

Dante stood by the window, reading through the agreement for the third time.

Matteo sat in the leather chair to the left. Vincenzo in the one on the right.

The only sound was the ticking clock and Dante turning pages.

Lorenzo was staring at the wall. Jaw tight.

"There's no way out, Lorenzo," Dante said finally. Set the papers down. "He's got you in a corner."

You'll make me cry.""I can't help it. My baby is getting married.""I'm already married."This is different. This is real. This is choice.

    Breakfast was almost over when Raphael's phone rang.He looked at the screen. His face changed. Went pale. "Excuse me," he said. Stood up. Left the room. Everyone looked at each other. "Should someone—" Matteo started. "Give him a minute," Lorenzo said. They waited. Five minutes. Ten. Raphael came back. He looked stressed. Worried. "I need to leave," Raphael said. "Today. Now actually." "What happened?" Vincenzo asked. "My girlfriend. She's sick. In the hospital. She just called. I need to get back to Paris." "Is she okay?" Isabella's voice was concerned. "I don't know. She sounded. Bad. I need to be there." Raphael looked at Lorenzo. "I'm sorry. I know I just got here but—" "Don't apologize," Lorenzo cut him off. "Go. Be with her." "Are you sure?" "Yes. Family emergency. I understand." Raphael nodded. "I'll be back. As soon as she's better. And I'll bring her. So you can all meet her." "We'll be here," Vincenzo said. "Go take care of her." Raphael ran upstairs. Packed

    The living room was too quiet.Everyone stood frozen. Staring.Lorenzo. Kyrian. And the man who looked exactly like Lorenzo.Matteo spoke first. "What the hell.""Language," Isabella said automatically. But her eyes never left Raphael. Her hand was at her throat. "Vincenzo. Are you seeing this?"Vincenzo hadn't moved. He was staring at Raphael like he'd seen a ghost. His face had gone completely white. His hands were shaking."Sit down," Lorenzo said. His voice was hard. Enigma's voice "Everyone. Now."They moved slowly. Like they were underwater. Isabella sat on the couch. Matteo next to her. Vincenzo stayed standing. Couldn't seem to make his legs work.Lorenzo stood in the center. Raphael next to him. Kyrian hung back near the doorway.."I need to tell you something," Lorenzo started. His voice was shaking slightly. "And I need you to listen. All the way through. Before anyone says anything."."Lorenzo what is this?" Matteo was staring at RaphEael. "Who is he? Why does he look exac

  • DARK BOND    Chapter 50 : Breaking Point

    Kyrian sat in his hotel room for two hours after Lorenzo walked away.Just sat there. On the bed. Staring at the wall. His phone kept buzzing. Raphael. Asking if he was okay. Asking about Lorenzo. Kyrian ignored it. At midnight he couldn't take it anymore. He grabbed his jacket and left. Thomas was in the hallway. Always there. "Mr. Moretti?" "I need air." "I'll accompany you." "Fine. Whatever." Kyrian walked. No destination. Just movement. Through Paris streets that were too quiet. Too cold. He ended up at the Seine. Stood on a bridge. Watched the water. His phone rang. Lorenzo. Kyrian answered. "Hello." "Where are you?" Lorenzo's voice was rough. Like he'd been crying. "At the river. Near Notre Dame." "Stay there. I'm coming." "Lorenzo you said you needed space—" "I changed my mind. Don't move." He hung up. Kyrian stayed on the bridge. Waiting. The wind was cold. Cut through his jacket. Fifteen minutes later he heard footsteps. Lorenzo appeared. No coat. Just his

"Mr. Volkov. What's the plan for today?""I don't know. Walk around. See the city.""I'l arrange the car.""No car. I want to walk."Thomas looked uncomfortable. "Don Moretti specifically said—"I know what he said. But I'm walking. You can follow me if you want. But I'm not sitting in a car all day."Thomas sighed. "Understood.Luca and I will accompany you."Kyrian walked Paris for hours. The Louvre. Notre Dame. Random streets with no destination.Thomas and Luca followed ten feet behind. Silent. Professional. Suffocating.Kyrian's phone rang constantly.Isabella. Asking how he was. If he was eating properly..Matteo. Complaining that Lorenzo was unbearable without him.His mother.
