I tilt my head, inspecting his options for clues. I do know he received’t give me any particulars about what occurred final evening, however I need to make certain I haven’t pushed him into one thing he wasn’t sure about. “And issues with Levi?”

“You don’t have something to fret about. We’re figuring issues out.”

I don’t know why, however these phrases flip my abdomen. Hope worms its approach by way of my system, as a result of as completely happy as I’m with my three males, I additionally need them to be completely happy too. If that signifies that Luca and Levi have discovered one thing too, I’m okay with that. Greater than okay.

Leaning down, I peck Luca’s tender lips. “You already know you may speak to me.”

“I do know,” he smiles once more, this time sweetly, extra adoringly. It’s nearly like I’m taking a look at Levi with the best way his blue eyes gentle up. “Are you okay with every thing?”

I snake my arms round his neck, straddling his thighs. “I don’t assume I ever thought I’d be this completely happy. However right here you all are, proving me improper.”

Luca captures my mouth together with his. His kiss is tender, and similar to our first time, he’s tentative with the best way he strikes towards me. However then it’s like a change is flipped and he winds his fingers into my hair, his tongue delving into my mouth. The best way he reacts to me, even by way of the connection he and Levi are forming, chases away any doubts I might have over his emotions. Like me, he’s torn, too. And that stage of understanding is one thing you may’t assist however respect.

“It’s all as much as you, Dolcezza. Don’t neglect that.”

I brush a hand by way of his tender hair, reveling the best way the strands slip by way of my fingers. “You’re a modified man,” I giggle, rubbing my nostril towards his.

“No, Bianchi. I’m a cheerful one.”

My coronary heart clenches at these phrases. I do know we wouldn’t be on this scenario if it weren’t for me, however I’m additionally not naïve sufficient to assume that is all my doing. Sooner or later we’d have all crossed this line. We might have all given into temptation and lust, it was simply that we wanted the push to get us there.

As a lot as I hate to say it, perhaps Enzo’s dying has include a silver lining. One within the type of three males which might be beginning to make me really feel issues I don’t assume I ever have earlier than.

As soon as upon a time, I believed I used to be in love. I used to be poisoned and blinded by poisonous devotion to a person who thought energy got here from selecting on the weak. I do know now that isn’t the case. I’m falling for every of those males. Completely different depths, totally different layers, totally different concepts of affection, and I don’t need to lose that.

Amidst the ache, we’ve all discovered each other.

“Go on,” I usher Luca. “Discover out what’s taking place down on the docks. I’ll stick with Gio.”

I don’t go away room for argument as I push off of Luca’s lap. His fingers nonetheless linger on my physique as he stands, however I really feel prefer it’s reluctance over breaking our proximity greater than the rest.

I really feel it. He feels it. There’s a connection to all of those males that deepens the extra time I spend with them. It’s a bond I wouldn’t have discovered if we hadn’t been caught up in one thing extra vengeful.

“See you quickly,” he growls, kissing my lips briefly.

I watch him go away earlier than I head into the lavatory. Giovanni is buttoning his shirt, his darkish hair nonetheless damp from the bathe. It’s most likely the fifth bathe he’s taken within the span of twelve hours, as a result of each time we headed in to get cleaned up, we simply began the sexual cycle another time. Giovanni is insatiable, and I really feel like so long as I’m within the firm of those three unimaginable males, I’m by no means going to relaxation.

I can’t actually complain. Between Giovanni, Levi and Luca, I’m a rattling fortunate girl. I couldn’t think about having it some other approach. It’s not simply their attractiveness, however their personalities. Their consideration and attentiveness. Their loyalty and adoration is faultless and I do know with out these males behind me, I wouldn’t be the chief I’m proper now.

There’s nonetheless a protracted technique to go and my father’s phrases haven’t strayed removed from my thoughts. I must set an instance and show that I can do the job simply as a lot as the boys round me. My father’s brutal approach of handing the reality to me nonetheless stings, however to a point, I perceive what he was getting at.

I must show I’m able to main this household, La Cosa Nostra, into a brand new period.

“I’m sorry, Principessa.” Giovanni spins round, locking his green-eyed gaze with me. “As a lot as I’d prefer to relive the final twelve hours, we have to get out of this pool home earlier than we develop into hermits.”

I pad ahead, sliding my fingers up his chest. “I agree,” I say with a smile. “Haze it’s.”

Giovanni grips my hips, urgent me to his laborious physique. “Haze it’s.”

The prospect of understanding that the docks are lastly open means numerous issues. One, we are able to lastly get again to enterprise with out the Feds looming over us, and two, we are able to push ahead with our plans to sabotage the Verdis. We’ve began with the warehouses, however that’s not the place this ends. I made a promise to myself that they’d meet their maker. For months, we have now been chipping away at their defenses, utilizing my energy and reasoning to get all of the back-up we are able to.

The Vultures have pledged their loyalty to me since saving their chief’s daughter. I may need Greco by the neck on no matter soiled dealings he’s doing, however that doesn’t imply I absolutely belief him. We nonetheless want to determine who’s feeding my father info. If that’s Greco’s males, we’ll quickly discover out. Luca and Levi dismissed them, which implies if any extra info is leaked exterior of my home, we’ll find out about it.

I sit again in my desk chair, content material that every thing is correctly. The golf equipment are doing effectively, my workers are content material and protected, and I’m completely happy. For what looks like the primary time in endlessly, I truly really feel relaxed sufficient to admire the view from my window.

If I shut my eyes, I can hear the faint sound of the ocean. Reminiscences of Enzo and me as children come flooding again. However for as soon as, my ideas of him aren’t tainted by anger. It’s a sluggish street to restoration, and our vengeance on the household that took my finest good friend away will come. I’ve realized that biding my time is what makes a superb chief, and the extra I give it some thought, the extra I do know that the Verdis received’t see me coming.

I’m enjoying the sluggish sport now. I simply need to hope that we are able to beat them earlier than Luciano and his household come for me once more.
