"That might be true, I never said Dominic was an angel. He is a mafia don after all, but he would never hurt me, he loves me."

"If you say so," he said
"I mean it." I retorted.
He loosened up a little. "I just don't want you sacrificing yourself because you think this is the only way."
"I'm not. This is where I want to be." That was the truth, there was no place I wanted to be than where I was.
Unconsciously, I rubbed my still-flat stomach without missing a beat. Jason followed my hand, and when he locked eyes with me, there was nothing to say.
