Between Darkness and Light

Chapter Fifty-One"EVERYONE in position?" Giovanni asked Jaime after tossing him the phone."Yes, Boss. They're standing by for your order.""Good."Salt air swept across the high rooftop where Giovanni crouched motionless, his dark silhouette dissolving into the deep shadows that clung to the building's concrete ledge. Below them, the pier stretched like a finger into the black water, its weathered planks gleaming under the sparse streetlights. The smell of diesel fuel and rotting fish hung heavy in the air—a perfect cover for the kind of business that thrived in darkness.For the past three weeks, he had done nothing but monitor and cri

Chapter Fifty-Two"OH, y-you're here. I thought you said seven o'clock."Carly's heart gave a hard thud the moment she saw Giovanni.He had gotten a haircut, she noticed. And if it was even possible, it only made him look hotter. Sexier."Can't I show up early just because I missed you?" His lips curved into that infuriatingly charming half-smile.Carly felt the temperature in her face spike. She was blushing, she just knew it. And what did he just say? He missed her?While she tried to casually take in the sight of him in his gray suit and black undershirt, Giovanni made no effort to hide the way his eyes slowly swept over her, hot and searing."I hope I'm not too flashy... or too casual?" she asked, a little self-conscious.She was wearing a simple V-neck mini dress with three-quarter sleeves, black with a delicate chain belt that cinched at her tiny waist. It was a careful choice. Elegant without being too s

Chapter Fifty-Three"CAN you excuse me for a sec?" Giovanni murmured to Carly when he noticed his father slip into the corridor, Charles O'Marra in tow.Though puzzled, Carly only nodded."I won't be long," he assured her, pressing a quick kiss to the top of her head. "Finish your food."Giovanni walked with casual strides toward his father's private office. Two bodyguards flanked the door, but they stepped aside at his subtle signal. He pressed his ear against the door—nothing. Soundproofed, of course. He cursed under his breath. Nearly every office of his father's was designed to keep secrets locked away from prying ears.He tried the k

Chapter Fifty-Four"YOU can all stay here," Carly told her four bodyguards as she stepped out of the car.She saw the protest in their eyes."I'm safe here, okay?" she said, trying not to sound irritated.They were inside a private cemetery. She was there to visit her mother's grave. Whenever she needed to be alone, this was where she came. Whenever her anger toward Tyron grew too heavy to bear, she would come here instead, crying quietly before her mother's resting place.But was her mother truly a bad woman? Was it true she had been Don Salvatorre's mistress, as Giovanni had said? Ah, if only she were still alive, Carly could ask her about all the questions tormenting her heart. Even now she could already imagine Giovanni's fury the moment he discovered she was the daughter of the woman he despised most half of his life. And she was almost certain then that their wedding would never happen.The thought made her chest tight
