Through Smoke and Steel: A Mafia Romance Chapter 115 - Focus
❦ Rosalind ❦ I pulled up to the front of Emerald Intercontinental hotel, my car idling in a scant queue of cars . Everything gleamed, the glass, the marble, even the people. I scowled.I could only imagine the kind of shady things the owner of this place was into. No one got that rich by being clean. Still, as I inched closer to the valet lane, my eyes wandered over the tall beautiful arches, spotless windows, and the golden light spilling out from inside. If this hotel ever went on sale, I’d buy it with the money from my last deal.I could go into flipping hotels professionally, turning an oversight to a profession. The thought made me snort. My first joke of the night, if you could even call it that.Humor was a foolproof method, and I was intent on cramming the horror show that was tonight into a manageable corner of my brain, slap sarcasm on top, and pretend it’s all fine.I’d deal with it later. After I found a bed. After I remembered how to breathe.When I reached the valet

❦ Rosalind ❦I froze. My mind couldn’t decide what to focus on between the rough, hot hand gripping my jaw, or the words that had just left his mouth.Papa. Mama. Murder.No.A sharp laugh burst out of me, cracked and thin.“You can’t be serious. You’d actually stoop this low? Say shit like that just to distract me?” My voice shook, but I scoffed anyway.But then his face softened. And for some reason that hurt worse. Because if he was lying, why the hell would he look at me like that? Why would his grip loosen like he was holding glass?“2009,” Viktor said, his voice gentle. “You were five. Your father had a fight with your mother. It was about a man he thought she was seeing.” His eyes never left mine, like he wanted to drink in every reaction. “Your mother was beautiful, Rosa. I saw the tape. I saw your father hit her. You appeared in the doorway. Claudia pulled you away. And then…” his voice turned rough, “your father didn’t stop. He beat her until she fought back. And then he

❄︎ Viktor ❄︎The house was quiet while I made my way down the hall. There was a soundproof den downstairs where my men occasionally cooled off, making the silence absolute. I’d just returned from a meeting with my arms dealer, who’d whined about a shipment delay like the world might end if I didn’t pat him on the head. A mild issue, nothing I couldn’t fix, but it took more time than I’d wanted to spend.My hand flexed around the gift bag i’d picked up on my way back. Something small for my scheming wife I didn’t know why the fuck I bothered sometimes, but the thought of her face softening, just for a second when she opened a gift from me, kept me from dumping the bag in the nearest trash bin.And of course my head always circled back to her, to the hotel. To the way she‘d played me, and then later hidden under Dante’s name on the auction.The question was why?Had she regretted her decision to sell? Well it was too late now. She rigged the game and still lost, might teach her a

❦ Rosalind ❦I took one step out of the room and almost plowed straight into Enza. She was right there in the hallway, her hand frozen mid-air like she’d been about to knock. We both startled and grabbed each other to steady ourselves.“The don was worried about you,” she said, a little breathless, after recovering. “He asked me to get you anything you want. Anything you need. He’ll be right back.”Right back. My chest clenched.“Where did he go?” I asked, hoping I didn’t sound as guilty as I felt. Enza shook her head. “I don’t know. But it looked serious.”Of course. Everything with him was serious.I forced myself to take a deep breath.I just had to pray and hope that he wouldn’t hear about the hotel before I told him myself. Scratch that.I was going to tell him. It was better for him to hear it from me than catch it anywhere else. He would most probably murder me.Decision made. No backing out.“I, um…” I gestured weakly behind me at the room. “I spilled the food. I’m sorry.”

❦ Rosalind ❦My skin was clammy under the warm covers, my head splitting with a migraine that throbbed behind my eyes. My tears had long slowed, dried to tracks on my cheeks, and for a little while I’d drifted, half-asleep, floating in that heavy exhaustive haze that comes after too much crying.Then… A knock.My whole body jolted. My eyes shot open, though I didn’t move, didn’t uncover myself. I just stayed hidden under the duvet like a coward.“Rosa?” Came his voice. Muffled through the wood. Deep and steady. “Are you alright?”My chest ached at the sound. I pressed my hand against my mouth and tried to keep the fresh sobs back, but they slipped anyway, hot tears sliding down into the pillow.I lost the hotel.I actually lost it.I‘d wanted to sell it, yes. That had been the plan. My way of standing my ground and showing Viktor and the world that I couldn't be subdued or controlled. But I didn’t anticipate this feeling. This feeling of the ground being pulled out from under me,

❄︎ Viktor ❄︎I leaned toward Adrian’s laptop, peering closely at the numbers on the glowing screen, and a new ID flashed across the top.A seven hundred million dollar bid.“Who the fuck is that?” I sneered.Adrian fingers flew over the second laptop. It mirrored the auction but showed real names instead of anonymous numbers. Finally, he exhaled, annoyed, and said, “Giannis Sanchez. Looks like the man has lofty ambitions. God knows where he scraped together seven hundred million from.”“Can’t blame him. Every man deserves a chance to try his hand at greatness.” I leaned back casually. He would only be trying though, not succeeding.Adrian hummed an agreement.“Top it,” I ordered.His hands moved without hesitation, typing in seven-seventy. The screen blinked. YOU ARE NOW THE HIGHEST BIDDER.I caught the faintest mutter from him. “Cruel.”I smirked, licking sugar from my thumb. “You’re the one pressing the buttons.”Adrian snorted. “Don’t flatter yourself. I’m just doing the menial
