The Mafia’s Reckoning
Wandering down the hall, she passed the door to the library and froze.
It was cracked open.
She pushed it slowly, revealing the room inside. It was dark, lit only by a sliver of moonlight from the tall arched window. But there, behind the desk, sat Alex.

He didn’t look up.
“I didn’t know about Eliza,” she said finally, her voice barely carrying.
“I know,” Alex replied, but his tone was flat. Indifferent. Not the kind of ‘I know’ that forgave anything, but one that simply acknowledged a fact before discarding it.
