I sat across from Luca at the marble chess table, the pieces gleaming under the soft glow of the hanging lanterns. My king’s rook had just slid into place, trapping his queen. I leaned back, fingers steepled, and watched his face. Luca scanned the board for a long moment, then let out a low laugh that echoed off the high glass ceiling. “Checkmate again, Marcello.
