"All of this. All of them." Isabella slipped her arm through his. "He's being modest. He did the work himself." "With a lot of help," Damian corrected, looking at Roman. --- The surprise came when Marcus arrived. Roman didn't recognize him at first—this tall Black man in his fifties, dressed in a simple but well-fitted suit, carrying himself with quiet dignity. Then he saw Damian's face light up. "Marcus!" They embraced like old friends—or perhaps more than friends. Like family.

Red marks are already forming where Marius gripped him. Ryan glares with pure hatred but Marius doesn't flinch. Instead, Marius takes one deliberate step forward while lowering his head slightly. His emerald eyes are glowing faint and a threatening growl rumbles from deep in his chest. "Touch her again..." he quietly said. "And I will break more than your wrist." The growl thickens from Marius's throat are primal and unrelenting. Even the council members lean back in their seats. Ryan doesn't respond. He just breathes heavily while glaring at both of us. The others are too stunned to react.

His face had gone so pale he looked like he’d seen a ghost. “Marcus,” June said, her voice icy. “What do you know?” Marcus sank onto a box and buried his head in his hands. “Our grandfather... he didn’t just build buildings. He built people. He spent years searching the city for the smartest, strongest kids. He wanted the next Romanos to be perfect.” “What are you saying?” Dante’s voice was tight.

“Well, I might make an exception for that money laundering case your daughter is making at the treasury.” Lieutenant Marcin’s face showed deep fury. “Are you threatening me, Mr. Romano?” Shaking my head, I stared deep into his pale aqua blue hues. “I don’t know what a threat is.
