Once Renzo left and it was just the two of us, I couldn’t help but pinch Violet’s side playfully. Her gaze, which had been all dreamy about Renzo, now shifted to me.“Ouch, Sis! That actually hurt!” she complained, rubbing her side.I had a feeling there was more to Violet’s visit than just hanging out with me.“So what’s really going on, Violet? I get the sense it’s not just about me,” I asked, raising an eyebrow.She sniffled, glanced around like she was nervous, and pulled me into the living room. We sat on the sofa, and she finally spoke.“It’s about Renzo…” Her voice trailed off.I closed my eyes for a second, already guessing what she was getting at.I gave her an understanding smile. “You think he might have a girlfriend? And even if he doesn’t, there’s a pretty big age gap between you two. Don’t get your hopes up, Violet. Renzo’s older than me. He and Marco are practically the same age, just a couple of years apart.”“Age doesn’t matter, Sis!” She nudged me, grinning. “Come on,

Lately, I’ve been watching my sister chase after Renzo nonstop, and honestly, it’s been a bit much. Sometimes I just shake my head, not getting what she’s doing, and there are times when I want to close my eyes and pretend I’m not seeing it. You know that feeling of secondhand embarrassment? That weird cringe you get from someone else’s awkwardness even though you’re not involved? That’s exactly how I feel whenever Violet pulls her attention-seeking stunts around Renzo.One day, I came home from work to find Violet slouched on the couch, looking totally defeated. She’d been pestering Renzo all day, but now she seemed like she’d given up. I sat down next to her, worried.No matter how off-track she was acting, I couldn’t stand seeing Violet so down. Her sadness felt like it was weighing on me too.“I’ve been trying to get Renzo’s attention for so long, but it’s hard. I think he only sees me as your sister. Maybe he thinks I don’t notice how he’s avoiding me,” Violet said, her voice sad.

Lucille had just been discharged from the hospital, but she still needed more rest. Marco and I were both hoping for her full recovery before she returned to her duties, and I agreed with him—it was important to make sure she was fully well.Today, I was at the mall running errands. I could have easily handed them off to the housemaids, but I decided to take care of them myself, especially things like shopping. It gave me some peace of mind right now."Renzo," I called out, looking for his help. Marco wasn't with me since he was overseas dealing with Marcello and some business stuff. There were rumors about them possibly partnering up with the Grimaldi family from the Sicilian Mafia, but I trusted they were negotiating seriously.I’d learned a lot about their business dynamics. Marco always emphasized the advantage of making alliances with different countries. I knew about their partner nations, but I hadn’t had the chance to meet anyone from those groups, and honestly, I wasn’t too ea

I rushed around looking for my staff, my nerves on edge. When I couldn't find anyone quickly, I grabbed the car keys and decided to handle things myself. I chose one of Marco's cars.As I sped out of the driveway, the house guard saw me and quickly opened the gate, his face full of surprise. But I didn’t stop to acknowledge him—I was too focused on what was happening.I drove fast, my heart racing with every turn. I parked in a hurry, barely paying attention, and jumped out of the car, desperate to get inside.The gate was half open, and the whole place felt way too quiet. I pushed the gate open and rushed inside without thinking. The house was dark, no lights on anywhere. I called out to the helpers, but no one answered."Violet?" I shouted, my voice echoing.I kept calling her name until I finally heard her weak voice, "S-Sis, we're in the kitchen."Her words were shaky, and it was clear she was crying. I rushed to the kitchen, hoping to find her with Aunt Mildred, but before I could

“I’m Ronan Lombardi—the last living heir of the Lombardi family. The same family your husband tried to wipe out. I also run the organization your mother devoted her life to… the same one you promised to serve, whether you liked it or not.” He bent down so we were eye level, brushing my hair aside and trying to force me to look at him. “Maddie, your loyalty should be to me, not to your husband. I’m the one in charge now. Your mother gave your life to our cause.”My jaw tightened. My gut had been right all along. Marco had told me he ended the Lombardi bloodline—but one survived. Ronan.I clenched my fists, full of regret. I should’ve said something to Marco that night, told him about the doubts gnawing at me. Maybe then he would’ve made sure no one was left.My thoughts were interrupted when Ronan slowly raised his hand to the mask covering half his face. He traced it for a moment, then pulled it off.My eyes went wide. The skin underneath was burned and scarred. I quickly turned away—I

“Sis,” Violet whispered, barely audible. “The new driver… he was one of them. He tricked us all. He got into our house, watched us, learned everything. This whole thing was planned. They knew Marco was leaving and that the Moretti family would be distracted. That’s why they picked today to strike.”She looked at me with worry written all over her face. There was fear in her eyes, but I gave her a small, reassuring smile. Ronan might think he knew everything about the Morettis, but he had no idea what I was capable of. He didn’t know I already had a plan—one that might just get us out of here.As I explained the plan in whispers and signals, I could see Violet starting to believe. She was scared, but she trusted me. It wasn’t a perfect plan—far from it. We had no guarantees, just a lot of risk. But I was ready to do whatever it took to get us both out, even if it meant putting my life on the line.When they handed out our tiny portions of food, Violet and I exchanged a look. It was time

The security cameras here were nothing compared to the ones at the Moretti estate. Thanks to Marty, I knew exactly where the blind spots were—which was a lifesaver right now.I overheard one of the guards talking nearby, and something in his voice told me he was suspicious. Something must’ve tipped them off in the next room, but we had no idea how many of them were out there. That only made things more complicated.As we kept moving, the hallway got darker. We ducked into a small corner to catch our breath and think. Just being close to Violet helped calm my nerves a little.“What now? I think we’re lost,” Violet whispered, sounding unsure.I didn’t have an answer either. This place was a maze, and every hallway looked the same.“We stick to the plan. Priority is staying out of their hands,” I said, squeezing her hand. “We’ll figure out the exit eventually.” I kept a firm grip on my gun, just in case.“Come on,” I said, choosing a dim hallway instead of going back the way we came—too r

Violet suddenly pulled away from me and took off running in the opposite direction. The look in her eyes was fierce—so full of determination that it stunned the guys chasing us for a second. It was just enough of a distraction. The moment I saw they were going after her, I bolted the other way.Tears streamed down my face as I ran, my chest aching with worry for Violet. I prayed—hard—that she’d be okay until I could get help.I was beyond exhausted, but I didn’t let myself stop. My legs were numb from running, and I wasn’t even sure how I was still moving. I was so lost in my thoughts I didn’t notice the ground sloping sharply ahead.I tripped—and went tumbling down the hill. Pain shot through me as I landed, but I forced myself to get up. That’s when I realized—I’d landed on a road. An empty one, but still… a road.I got up fast and kept going, hoping—begging—for a passing car, for anyone kind enough to stop.But every car that drove by just kept going, not even slowing down. My screa

I could feel this constant unease inside me, a nagging feeling that wouldn't go away. My mind kept racing with thoughts of the people we were still looking for, their absence eating at me. I wanted a break, some peace, but time just kept slipping by, making it feel like it was mocking me.In the middle of all this, Vittoria stepped in, guiding me to sit down. Her hand on my back was firm but comforting, like she was trying to calm me down. But I could tell, behind her soothing words, that the promises she made didn’t really mean much. Deep down, I knew I wouldn’t feel at peace until my sister and Renzo were back and safe with me.Time felt like a blur, with the hours slipping by and only Dad getting updates. The rest of the Moretti family and their people were all scattered. Only Stefano, Dad, and Vittoria were here, and Gabriele was stuck inside with his lab work.Suddenly, the door slammed open, grabbing my attention. I looked up, meeting Marco’s furious gaze—and "furious" didn’t eve

We followed the guy without hesitation, even though he clearly wasn’t too happy about me tagging along. His resistance didn’t matter—I wasn’t about to back off. On the other side of the river, some of Marco’s men were causing a scene, pulling something out of the water. I fought my way through the crowd to see what they had found."Violet!"My sister’s usually pale skin looked almost ghostly, and her lips were colorless. She looked lifeless, her eyes shut in a way that made my heart drop.I rushed toward her, but the officers on the scene stopped me."You can’t, ma’am," one of them said firmly.I stared at her body, feeling a knot in my stomach—it looked so much like Violet."No! I need to make sure it’s really her! Let me through!"I pushed against the police, desperate to get closer to Violet, but Marco quickly grabbed me, holding me back.I saw him, and he wouldn’t meet my eyes. He looked away, unable to face what was happening.A wave of emptiness hit me as the reality of it all sa
