“My granddaughter won’t ever forgive you if one thing occurs to her household.”

“You imply, like the way you instructed her—her father would kill her if you happen to instructed him to take action?”

His eyes grew broad.

“That’s the household you assume she needs me to guard?”

“I didn’t imply that. I solely mentioned it to get her in line. We’ve mentioned worse to ladies.”

“Converse for your self.” He grimaced, most likely on the ache taking pictures by his arm.

“Get the fuck out. All of you. And ensure while you converse of the Lucas Cosa Nostra, it’s with favor. If I discovered in any other case, you gained’t dwell to see the dawn.”

The all moved directly and I yelled, “Get this motherfucker’s blood off my flooring!”

Capos rushed to push the lads out whereas others cleaned up the mess I’d made. I turned to Dameon and for the primary time in years, I felt a reference to him. He nodded and I nodded again.

I reached out and grabbed Mano. “Inform Luna and Gabriella their presence is required.”

He left and I strolled to the window. Dameon sat within the chair behind his desk, and we remained in silence when my sisters Luna and Gabriella appeared.

“You rang?” Luna teased.

I needed to tease her again, however my temper was bitter.

I confronted her. “Are you positive you’re prepared to do that?”

She straightened her shoulders taken observe of my temper. “Sure. Until you’ve modified your thoughts.”

I glanced at Gabriella, and she or he nodded. “Now we have been able to play our half in our household’s historical past for a very long time, brother. And apart from I might use a dose of pleasure in my life.”

“Pleasure?”

“Sure.”

“You two will likely be marrying into the Falsetti and Morocco households. Issues will change for you drastically. Do you discover that thrilling?”

“Sure.” They each agreed, practically in unison.

I glanced at Dameon, and he sat with a proud smile on his face. This should have been one of the crucial necessary moments in his life; witnessing his kids fortunately step into roles that may additional the Lucas empire.

It was this second after I realized what was at stake.

My household.

I cherished my sisters with all my coronary heart. Our most reliable capos like Mano, and leaders like Bruno, had all finished what was finest for the sake of the Lucas Cosa Nostra so the household might thrive.

I had spent years hating every little thing about it. Principally as a result of I’d been launched to the darkish aspect and never the togetherness, the love, and the camaraderie.

This hit me so fiercely that I noticed I’d been going about this all mistaken.

I used to be the Black Rose, however the shift in what that meant would begin now. Our signature would stay intact. I’d proceed to make use of it however solely when it was sincerely related to the Lucas Cosa Nostra. And I’d ensure that to present my household selections and never drive them into something they didn’t need to do.

That might be my legacy.

“We’re assembly the Falsettis and Moroccos in two hours. Be ready.”

They nodded and left the room and I appeared to my father, who winked at me.
