Married To Danger
If he ever got wind of this… if he found out I’d lied about my wife's death and kept her hidden on my top floor and then proceeded to marry his niece, he would never forgive me.
It would be immediate death for all of us. My father, Damien, my guards. And even Valentina. Being his niece wouldn’t be enough reason to keep her alive.
My throat tightened.
I pushed a hand through my hair and forced air into my lungs. “What do we know?”
Damien replied, “From what Domenico told us, they came in right as Serena tumbled down the stairs. Apparently, she’d attacked Valentina with a knife. If Valentina hadn’t moved out of the way, we’d be dealing with a different body right now.”
