View MoreOnce Luciano drove Sarah back to the mansion, she went staight to bed, ignoring the feast spread out on the dinner table for her.The room was suffused with an empty stillness that pressed down on her. Sarah sat on the edge of the bed, her silk robe loosely draped over her, as though even the effort of tying it properly was too much. The faint sound of the wind as hit ruffled the leaves outside her window only reminded her how far away Aldo was. It had been days since he left Venice, his first business trip since they’d started dating. She had been proud of herself at first, handling his absence with grace. But now?Now, she missed him so intensely it ached.The cool silk of the robe brushed against her bare legs as she stood, walking aimlessly to the bathroom. Her fingers fumbled with her phone, hovering over his name. She hesitated—she didn’t want to seem needy—but the yearning bubbling inside her was unbearable. Finally, she typed a message:I can’t sleep. Are you up?His reply came
While Aldo struggled to navigate complex work dynamics, Sarah was back in Venice, living like a pampered wife. Beraldi followed her closely, never letting her out of his line of sight as she strutted from one shop to the next with Julia hooked around her arm.Honestly, Sarah thought it was a waste of time to have Beraldi around. Julia had a fleet of men following them anyway. Some carried her bags, others stood there for protection, and a few more just hung around waiting to be ordered by her. Seeing the affluence that her friend seemed to carry, she couldn't help but feel bad for the poor man who had been following her around in silence all day.By noon on the second day of this shopping spree, she urged him to go back to the mansion. As she expected, he said he was fine and continued to follow her around.On the third day, she asked again. “Are you sure you’re okay? You really should go back home. I’m fine with Julia’s guards.” To her surprise, he actually took the offer. Glancing o
The private dining room of one of the city’s finest restaurants was a picture of opulence: gold-trimmed walls, a crystal chandelier overhead, and a table set with the finest china and silverware. The atmosphere was intimate but heavy, the kind of place meant for deals whispered over wine and perfectly seared steaks.Aldo leaned back in his chair, his sharp suit spotless, his expression unreadable. Across from him sat Leonardo Valentino, the head of the Valentino Syndicate, a man in his sixties with a thick head of silver hair and a smile that didn’t quite reach his eyes. Between them, a bottle of red wine sat untouched, though Mr. Valentino had poured himself a generous glass.“Aldo,” Valentino began, swirling the wine in his glass, “it’s been too long. I must say, it’s good to finally have you here in my city, breaking bread with me.”Aldo tilted his head slightly, offering a polite but distant smile. “Your invitation was… intriguing.”Valentino chuckled, a deep, throaty sound that e
Noticing Marco’s weird movements from the rearview mirror, aldo sat up a little. He glanced over to the side window, he looked but failed to see what Marco was constantly checking for. “Problem?” Aldo asked, his voice low.“Maybe,” Marco replied, his tone tight but calm. “Hang on.”Marco’s fingers danced over the console, flipping a switch that dimmed their taillights to make their brake signals less noticeable. He tapped a button on his earpiece, activating a private channel to the rest of Aldo’s security team.“This is Marco,” he said, his voice barely above a whisper. “We’ve got a tail. Black sedan, four cars back. Requesting backup and confirmation on hotel perimeter security.”The reply crackled in his ear almost immediately. “Copy that, Marco. Two vehicles en route to your location. ETA five minutes. Hotel perimeter is secure—no unusual activity reported.”Marco nodded, though his grip on the armrest tightened.
