Vince Salvini sat directly across from me, his posture rigid, eyes cold and calculating. Cristo Falcone lounged beside him with deceptive casualness that didn\u2019t fool me for a second. Matteo Salvini, Alex Falcone\u2026 Moretti, whatever the fuck last name he was going by, and Domenico Rossi, Vince Salvini\u2019s best friend, completed their side of the table\u2014a unified front of powerful men accustomed to getting their way.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo let me get this straight,\u201d Vince said, leaning forward. \u201cYour mission was to irritate me into submission? Is that your usual MO? How\u2019s that working out for you, Zotov?\u201d A ripple of chuckles spread around the table. Even Anton, seated beside me, couldn\u2019t suppress a smile. I ignored the jab. \u201cMy mission was to facilitate and reestablish cooperation between the Paraskia Syndicate and the Salvini Organization.<\/p>\n

The same applies to the Falcones and, by extension, the Morettis.\u201d I nodded toward Alex, who raised an eyebrow in acknowledgment, which made him look even more threatening. My gaze drifted to the door again. Roman should have brought Isabella by now. As soon as Grey took that phone call and excused himself, I sent him to get her. I didn\u2019t trust Grey, not even for a minute. At least, that\u2019s what I told myself. The truth\u2014which I was becoming increasingly harder to deny\u2014was that not only didn\u2019t I trust Grey, but I wanted her near me.<\/p>\n

In my line of sight. To know she was safe. And where the fuck was Grey anyway? He should be the one leading this conversation, not me. \u201cYour grandfathers were founding members of the Paraskia Syndicate,\u201d I continued, forcing my attention back to the meeting. \u201cThe organization was established to maintain global stability by leveraging the resources and networks of families like yours.\u201d \u201cIf our grandfathers were so invested in this organization,\u201d Cristo interjected, \u201cwhy the breakup? Why weren\u2019t our fathers invited to join?\u201d<\/p>\n

I met his gaze head-on. \u201cThat\u2019s something to ask Grey. But according to the files I\u2019ve reviewed, they weren\u2019t deemed\u2026trustworthy enough.\u201d Matt snorted. \u201cThat\u2019s diplomatic.\u201d \u201cI\u2019m not here to judge the decisions of previous generations,\u201d I said. \u201cI\u2019m here to discuss the future. The Paraskia believes it is now time to renew the partnerships\u2060\u2014\u201d The door burst open, cutting me off mid-sentence.<\/p>\n

Your mental health matters most!!! OceanofPDF.com T PROLOGUE ISABELLA he library was my favorite place in the entire world.<\/p>\n

Right behind the leather sofa, next to Nonno\u2019s massive desk, was a spot where the floor was cozy and warm. I\u2019d found the perfect reading nook and the perfect hiding spot since nobody apart from my grandpa and me used the library. But now Nonno would never use it again. I buried myself deeper in the thick carpet, which muffled any sounds, and inhaled deeply. Would the scent disappear, as well? I hated all the people in our house, hated how everybody was laughing while telling stories about Grandpa, and I just wanted to not think about how he hadn\u2019t even looked like himself in that casket.<\/p>\n

I sucked in air and stopped the tears in my eyes. The leather smell mixed with old books, and the faint lingering of Nonno\u2019s cigarettes made me feel safe. Made me feel as if he was still around. I turned another page of Around the World in Eighty Days and focused on the adventure. How would it feel to just be free to travel the world? Suddenly, the door creaked open, and heavy footsteps broke through my bubble.<\/p>\n

My whole body tensed. Those weren\u2019t my brother Vince\u2019s quick steps, Matteo\u2019s stomping, or my father\u2019s heavy steps. They were slower, deliberate, with a slight limp. Uncle Marcus. He wasn\u2019t really my uncle\u2014just one of Father\u2019s friends\u2014 but he insisted we call him that. But something about the way he looked at me made my skin feel wrong. I pressed deeper into my hiding spot as his polished shoes appeared in my line of sight. He settled onto the sofa, the leather creaking.<\/p>\n

The sound of a laptop opening followed. Dust tickled my nose.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
