~~Sofia~~

Two Hours Earlier

I have my arms around Nico, who has finally fallen asleep, his body lax against mine. Carla is in the car riding shotgun beside Silvio, who has his fingers clenched around the wheel.

"Can you go faster?" Carla snaps at him, her body bent forward, her phone pressed to her ears.

"I'm going as fast as I can. Unless you want to explain to the boss why his wife and kids were found in a ditch somewhere." Silvio snaps back, throwing her

  • RUINED BY MY BROTHER'S MAFIA BESTFRIEND   The Weight of Her

    ~~MASSIMO~~"Did you take her home?"Dr. Lambert studies me from over her wire-frame glasses. I always like that sensation, the feeling of being dissected by an unseen scalpel, wondering what rot or cancer she's peering at that I can't detect. I go to my therapist the way some people go to the movies, I go to the opera the way other people go to their therapist.For me, psychiatry is more of a hobby than treatment. I think it pissed the good doctor off a bit when she finally worked out that I was using her the same way most people use a Netflix subscription. But she didn't fire me as a client. Her loss. So here we sit, almost knee to knee in the quiet of her office."I did."My thoughts drift back to Seraphina Conti. Or they would if they ever really drifted away from her. For a week, the girl has been chewing at my gray matter. Like an infection. If Dr. Lambert were any sort of useful doctor, maybe she could cut that infection out."And it went well," she infers.My jaw twitches."I

  • RUINED BY MY BROTHER'S MAFIA BESTFRIEND   A New love story

    A Note in the Dark~~SERAPHINA~~A high note rings out through the dark theater. The note holds so long that the air starts to burn in my lungs as I forget to breathe. When it breaks, the scene falls into darkness, and heavy curtains billow out to embrace the stage. Golden light and warm applause fill the theater of the Civic Opera House. I wince. Reality is brighter than I remember.The intermission bell chimes overhead, and a feminine voice piped through a speaker announces a twenty-minute break. As I blink the real world into focus, the crowd around me shuffles and stands, voices rising and seats creaking.Normal conversation sounds alien after an hour of opera.One seat over, my brothers spill over themselves, tripping and elbowing each other as they fight their way out of the aisle like someone's yelled fire."Where are they going...?" I ask Isabella.My sister sniffs and settles her bag on her shoulder."Backstage, to get rejected. They've been drooling over the same singer for

  • RUINED BY MY BROTHER'S MAFIA BESTFRIEND   Epilogue: Two Years Later

    ~~Sofia~~The afternoon sun spills golden light across the lawn, warming my skin as I watch from the patio. Laughter drifts on the breeze—high-pitched and joyful, the sound I've come to treasure above all others.Nico races across the grass, his seven-year-old legs pumping, a soccer ball at his feet. He's gotten so tall, his dark hair flying behind him, his blue eyes squinting against the sun.Rafael's eyes. Rafael's hair. Rafael's competitive spirit."Papa! Catch!" Nico kicks the ball, and it soars through the air toward his father.Rafael stands twenty feet away, a twin balanced on each hip. Our daughters. Isabella and Chiara. One with my blonde hair and Rafael's fierce expression. One with Rafael's dark curls and my stubborn chin.They giggle as their father shifts them, adjusting his hold just in time to trap the ball against his chest with one hand."Nice kick, figlio mio!" Rafael calls out.Nico beams. He

    ~~Sofia~~"I pronounce you husband and wife!"As soon as the preacher says the words, I kiss Rafael with everything I've got.He kisses me back, and the church erupts into hoots around us.The moment is a blur. The ring on my finger feels solid, a diamond band that has absolutely no hint of a ruby in it.We're on the way from the church to our reception before I know it, and I change into a smaller, less cumbersome dress. When I open the door to the hallway that will lead to the reception hall, Rafael is there.I smile at him. I was hoping that Rafael and I could steal a quick moment together since we waited so long for this.I want to really savor the moment.I've waited five months now to hear those words. Five months of long days and nights planning our wedding, five months of hiding the wedding dress from Rafael's eyes. I'm wearing my mother's dress, which I thought would be a perfect way to have her here wi

    ~~Rafael~~When I find Carla outside, her gun missing, her shoulder still seeping blood, I experience a level of rage that I've never felt before.The car door is open, and Sofia is missing. As expected. There are about three cars scattered around the driveway, and none of those cars are mine.What did they do with the cars?What the fuck do I care about the damned cars anywhere? I know I'm trying to distract myself from what could be happening to Sofia right now.It's a rookie mistake to leave the house unguarded, and they have to know I'll be coming, which leads me to believe they have something planned.They planned this. They knew where I'd be. They knew Sofia would be here, and they knew who would be with her.This is all too well planned to just be a random attack. This is something that took time. Money.Information."It's not a good idea to step in there unprepared, Rafael." Silvio has his gun i

Silvio snaps back, throwing her a sharp glare. She grimaces and looks away, frowning.Whoever she's trying to reach on the phone must not be getting through because she takes the phone from her ears, her hands wrapped tight around it like it's a neck she wants to squeeze."Good gracious. Why the hell do they never pick up the fucking phone?""Language, Carla!" I lean forward to glare at her, too, my nerves stretched taut. She lifts her hands in the air, throws me a look of apology, and taps at the p

It sounds more like the beginning of a bad joke than a marriage, but at this point, I feel more like I'm being bought rather than married.Father's face creases and he sighs for th

I wanted to pull her back into bed. Make us both late for whatever responsibilities waited."Sole," I murmured, my voi
