Nagimbal ang mundo ng angkan ng Luciano nang malaman nila ang tunay na katauhan ni Daven.

I shout-whispered but he only chuckled, bit my ear lobe before staring at me deep in the eyes and asked, "Are you gonna tell him, Kitty?” √√√√√√√√ Lily's life takes a wild turn when she becomes involved with the mafia twin brothers Draco and Larry.
