Chapter 31 — The Argument

Mia found out about the safe house from Enzo. It happened three hours after Dante had already set everything in motion, which, looking back, was exactly the wrong way for her to find out."You're leaving tomorrow," Enzo said. He caught her in the hallway, looking every bit the man who’d just realized he’d let a secret slip. He’d clearly assumed she already knew. "Boss set it up this morning. A place upstate, really secure, not on any family records. He said—""He said what?"Enzo went pale. "He said it was decided. That you'd be safer there while he deals with the Kozlovs."Twenty minutes later, Mia found Dante in the war room. There was a folder of property deeds and security reports spread across the table in front of him. The anger she’d been nursing since the hallway hit him the second she stepped through the door."You were just going to send me away without saying a word?"Dante looked up. He was clearly calculating something, but his expression shifted when he saw how furious s

Chapter 32 — The Apology

Dante didn’t just apologize the next morning; he showed her. He did it in a way that made Mia realize their fight from the day before had actually changed something.When she walked into the war room, the space had been completely transformed. Usually, it was a mess of maps and reports—the kind of chaos she’d only ever glimpsed from the doorway. Now, everything was organized. Intelligence reports were laid out in a clear sequence across the long table, and a second chair had been pulled up right next to his at the head of the table. He’d set it there before she even arrived."I want to walk you through everything," Dante said, standing up as she entered. The tension from yesterday was gone, replaced by a quiet, genuine sincerity. "Not a summary. Everything. And then I want your take on it before I make any more decisions."Mia sat down slowly, staring at the amount of information in front of her. Surveillance logs, photos of Elena and Viktor, financial trails of Kozlov’s shell compani

Chapter 33 — The Kiss

They ended up back on the terrace that evening. It had become their spot—the place where they’d spent the last two months having the kind of quiet conversations they couldn't have anywhere else. Luna was finally asleep, and the rest of the house had settled into its usual, watchful rhythm.Mia sat with her knees tucked up, wrapped in a blanket to keep out the chill. She watched Dante pour two glasses of wine. He moved with a slow, easy confidence, the kind that came from a day spent proving he was actually serious about being a partner, not just promising it."Today was good," she said, taking the glass from him. "Not the situation, obviously. But the way we handled it.""Yeah, it was." Dante sat down next to her. He leaned in, his shoulder pressing against hers. A few weeks ago, that kind of contact would have felt tense; now, it just felt natural. "I keep thinking about what you said this morning. About how being partners isn't about always agreeing—it's just about not making the ot

Chapter 34 — The Truth About Luna

The tip came two days after the kiss on the terrace. It came through Ilsa, the same cautious channel Dante had used before. She’d been a mid-level accountant for the Kozlovs until she’d crossed paths with Anatoly’s legendary temper; since then, she’d become very friendly with anyone looking to buy information on the family.They met at a quiet café, two districts away from anywhere their respective organizations ever stepped foot. As soon as Ilsa confirmed they hadn't been followed, she didn't waste any time."Viktor knows," she said. "He’s known for months. Longer than the drones have been circling your house."Dante’s jaw tightened. "Since before Elena left Luna with me?""Before and after. From what I can tell, he spent nearly a year looking for Elena himself after she vanished during the docks conflict. He wasn't hunting her like his father’s men do—he actually wanted to find her. He found out she was pregnant through an old contact a few months before she died.""Died," Dante rep

Chapter 35 — The Enemy Moves

"He's not waiting anymore," Salvatore said, and just like that, the last three days of cautious hope vanished.The message from Ilsa had arrived just after midnight. Dante had asked her to quietly reach out to Viktor Kozlov, hoping to build a bridge, but the plan had backfired spectacularly. "Anatoly intercepted it," Salvatore explained, his voice tight. "It never even reached Viktor. One of Anatoly's people grabbed it in transit and brought it straight to him."Dante went still. "How bad is it?""Pretty bad. Ilsa says Anatoly sees this as proof that we're trying to sabotage his organization before the succession is final. He's decided to handle this himself—and quickly. He’ll likely move before Viktor even knows the message existed.""How much time do we have?""Ilsa isn't sure. Her guess? Days, not weeks." Salvatore’s jaw tightened. "And one more thing: Anatoly is furious. He’s stopped being subtle. Whatever happens next, it’s not going to be just more surveillance."Dante didn't w

Chapter 36 — Taken

The attack on the east perimeter was a lie. Dante only realized it after the fact, but the assault wasn't designed to win—it was designed to be noticed."Boss, they're hammering the east wall," Salvatore’s voice crackled over the radio, tight and strained against the backdrop of gunfire. "We're holding them off, but we need more men here. They're throwing everything they've got at this one spot—""Everything?" Dante froze. He was already heading for the door, caught between the fight at the wall and the two people he couldn't afford to lose. "Salvatore, how many are actually out there?""Eight, maybe ten. Same as we counted earlier—"Eight or ten men. That was it. Anatoly Kozlov had enough resources to send an army, yet he was "throwing everything" at a wall with ten guys. The realization hit Dante like a physical blow. He was standing in the middle of a trap."It's a diversion," Dante snapped, spinning back toward the safe room. "Salvatore, hold the line, but get eyes on every other

Chapter 37 — The Rescue

"I’m not staying here while you go play hero," Mia said, her voice steady despite the bandage still taped to her temple.Dante didn't look at her. He was staring at the map on the war room table, his jaw tight. "No.""Dante.""I am not debating this today, Mia." His voice had an edge to it—sharper than it had been in weeks. The exhaustion from the previous night was still there, simmering just under the surface, and his patience had completely run out. "You were almost killed twelve hours ago. I am not walking into a fight with the man who ordered that hit while worrying if you're about to get caught in the crossfire."The room was heavy with tension. Marco and Salvatore stood by, along with six of Dante's most trusted men. They’d spent the entire night scrubbing the mansion for threats and making sure Luna was safe. The little girl was finally asleep upstairs, with two guards at her door. "We go now," Dante said, finally looking up. "Before he has a chance to run.""That’s exactly w

Chapter 38 — Nobody Takes My Family

The fact that Anatoly Kozlov was already waiting for them told Dante everything he needed to know. The old man knew he’d screwed up badly the night before.Anatoly was standing in the middle of the shipping office floor, flanked by four guys who looked way less confident than they should have. He was standing straight, trying to look like he was still in charge, but his voice had that brittle quality of a man who knew the floor was falling out from under him."Moretti." Anatoly’s voice echoed through the empty warehouse. He sounded steady, but the tension was obvious. "I assume you're here to discuss last night's... misunderstanding.""There was no misunderstanding," Dante said. His voice was flat and cold. Marco and Salvatore fanned out behind him, guns drawn but pointed at the floor—the kind of controlled restraint that says one wrong word and this all changes. "Your people broke into my house. They put their hands on the woman I love. They took my daughter out of her crib and shove

Chapter 39 — The Aftermath

The danger was gone, but Dante hadn't gotten the memo. A week after the mess at the docks, Mia started noticing that his "protectiveness" had turned into something a bit more obsessive.He was checking the nursery door twice every single night now. He’d installed extra locks on every single exit, ignoring the fact that Viktor had assured them—twice—that the Kozlovs were done with them. He’d even cut Luna’s garden time in half, claiming he just wanted to be "safe," even though there wasn't a single threat left to be safe from."You can stop doing this, Dante," Mia said softly. She found him at his desk late one night, staring at security footage that showed exactly what it had shown every night for a week: absolutely nothing. "It’s over. Viktor said so, and Anatoly is completely out of the picture.""I know it's over.""Then why are you still waiting for the other shoe to drop?"Dante didn't look at her. He had this way of avoiding her eyes when he was feeling something he wasn't ready

Chapter 40 — Free From the Debt

Dante found Mia in the library on a quiet Sunday afternoon. It had been three weeks since the chaos at the docks, and she was finally finishing up the last shelf of a project she’d started the day she first moved into the house."You actually did it," he said, glancing around. The room looked completely different. The shelves were dusted, the books were actually in order, and the heavy curtains were clean and hanging straight for what he figured was the first time in ten years."Took me long enough," Mia said, stepping back to look at her work. She looked satisfied, though she added with a smirk, "In my defense, there was a kidnapping plot in the middle of it. That kind of messed up my timeline.""Fair enough.""I thought so." She turned to him, wiping her hands on her apron. She paused, noticing the look on his face. "You look like you've got something on your mind.""I do." Dante walked across the room and pulled a folded piece of paper from his jacket, handing it to her without any
