He made breakfast.

Actual food. Eggs and toast and coffee already made when I came out at eight thirty. Shadow had been fed, the living room furniture was back in its normal position. He was at the stove with a spatula.

I stood in the doorway.

"I can hear you deciding what to say," he said, without turning around.

"I wasn't going to say anything," I said.

"You were," he said. "You make a specific sound when you're standing somewhere decid

  • DEADLY FACADE: I Became His Obsession    Change Of Location

    Vincenzo's Pov Luca left at midnight with a list of names.I sat at the kitchen table with the evidence file open to the financial section. My working copy, the one with additional notes in the margins that had not been formalized yet.The Dante financial picture had been clear enough to present at the session. But clear enough to present was not the same as complete. There were threads I had pulled only far enough to satisfy the commission. Tonight I pulled them further.The first account connected directly to Dante's private holdings. That was the one I had put in front of the captains. Clean, documented, and unassailable.The second account was different.I had noted it three weeks ago as a secondary holding and flagged it without pursuing it fully because the commission case was strong without it. I pursued it now.The account was registered under a holding company name with two layers of distance from

  • DEADLY FACADE: I Became His Obsession    The Empty Chair

    Lenny's Pov I had not stayed in that room.The moment Luca fell asleep from the medication, I had taken the gun Vincenzo got me, left a note on the bed, and gone. I caught up with the team's location through Bressi's car, which Luca had tracked without telling me he was doing it, slipping out a side door of the building before anyone noticed.I found Vincenzo's car two blocks from the warehouse, exactly where Bressi had parked it.I went in through the same side door they had used, twenty minutes behind them.What I walked into stopped me cold in the doorway.Vincenzo and his three men were standing in the open center of the warehouse floor, surrounded. Dante stood near a side office with the relaxed posture of a man who had planned every second of this and was enjoying watching it play out."You shouldn't have come alone," Dante said to Vincenzo, gesturing slightly with one hand. "I expected more strategy from you, brother. This is almost disappointing."Vincenzo's voice was complet

  • DEADLY FACADE: I Became His Obsession    After The Room

    Lenny's Pov He sat on the couch, and Shadow pressed against his knee immediately. Luca stood at the kitchen entrance, looking at me."Water," I told him.Luca went to get it.I sat on the coffee table in front of Vincenzo the way I always did when I was about to look at damage. He let me. He was looking at the wall behind me with the particular expression of someone running a final check on everything that had happened in the last several hours."Tell me."He looked at me, and his voice was steady despite everything. "The session ran four hours. Dante had forty minutes of floor time. Borrelli gave him everything he asked for.""And the evidence file.""Forty-five minutes of presentation. Every document. Every transfer. Every communication record." He paused, and I watched his throat move. "Ferraro asked twelve questions. Every one was answered directly by the file.""And Bianchi."

  • DEADLY FACADE: I Became His Obsession    He Came Back

    Lenny's Pov The people at the door were maintenance. The maintenance men were real.They had building credentials and a work order for a smoke detector issue on the floor dated three days ago, and their tools in a bag were actual tools. Luca checked everything twice before he let them through.I stood at the kitchen entrance and watched him check both men. They were middle-aged and uncomfortable with the scrutiny, and they did not have the energy of people who had come to do anything other than fix a smoke detector. They were done in eight minutes, and Luca walked them to the elevator before coming back and closing the door.I looked at him."Real.""I know. I could tell after the first two minutes.""But it rattled you.""Yes.""That's reasonable. Given the last twelve hours."I went back to the table and sat down with my phone face up on the surface where I ha

  • DEADLY FACADE: I Became His Obsession    Deliberatly

    Vincenzo's Pov The commission chair opened the session at nine oh four.He was a man named Borrelli, sixty three years old and twenty years in the chair position. He had the particular manner of someone who had seen enough of these sessions to find the drama around them tedious rather than interesting.He read Giovanni's declaration into the record first. It took four minutes and the room was completely silent the entire time. The only sound was his voice and the turning of pages.I watched Dante across the table while Borrelli read. His expression did not change. He had known the declaration was coming and he had prepared for it. The pleasant expression stayed exactly where he always kept it. Same half smile. Same relaxed shoulders. Same eyes that didn't match any of it.When Borrelli finished he set the declaration down with his hands resting on either side of it."The capo's formal endorsement is now part of the s

  • DEADLY FACADE: I Became His Obsession    The Wait

    Lenny's Pov Luca was quiet for a moment with his hands resting on either side of his cup. He seemed to be choosing his words carefully."He has walked into worse rooms than this one, with less preparation. With no Giovanni declaration behind him and no confirmed captains."I nodded slowly because I knew all of that was true. "I know that.""He has walked out of all of them.""I know that too. Knowing it and sitting here are two different things."Luca met my eyes, and something in his expression softened slightly. "Yes. They are."Shadow put his head on my knee, and I put my hand on his without looking down. His fur was warm, and his breathing was steady. The simple weight of him grounded me."Tell me something about the session. Something specific. How it actually works."Luca turned his cup on the table, and the ceramic scraped softly against the wood. He seemed to appreciate the di

    Vincenzo’s POV"I swear I'll get you the money! I wasn't running... I wouldn't dare...!"Behind the pathetic pleading filling my ears, my 8 o’clock class loomed in my mind...I have an essay I've been putting aside. The professor was a pain, but he had a backbone unlike the others in my department,

    Lenny's POV"Explain?!" I spat out, throwing my plastic bag at him. "How the heck are you going to explain this?"He dodged—he always had surprisingly fast reflexes—and groaned, pulling up his pants and buckling swiftly."Sofia is a friend,""I'm sure she is," I seethed as he approached me. He had

    Lenny’s POVGradually, the darkness that had swallowed me finally began to spit me out, taking off its tendrils as I heard sounds muddled in my ear. Soon, the fluorescent lights above me flooded my vision. After taking a minute to adjust, I swept my head from one side to another."You're alive," a
