Milan’s phone rang just after midnight.

She had been sitting alone on the balcony of her hotel suite, files spread across the small table beside her while the street lights stretched below. The moment she saw her father’s name on the screen, unease settled immediately in her chest.

She answered at once. “Papa?”

“Milano.” His voice sounded strained and tired. The older man didn't hesitate to talk about why he had called. “Antonio Rocci came to the house today.”

    The Rocci attorney attempted recovery quickly. “Miss Andrea, are you suggesting Giovanni Rocci abused his wife?” Andrea’s gaze sharpened. She didn't even spare him a glance.“I am saying her injuries, behavior, and psychological state were all medically consistent with prolonged domestic abuse.”The lawyer’s expression hardened. “And yet she remained around dangerous men afterward.”“Yes,” Andrea answered calmly. “That is extremely common for trauma survivors.”The attorney looked briefly irritated by how composed she remained. “Including organized crime figures?”Andrea did bat an eyelid.“Trauma changes a person’s understanding of safety,” she replied. “Especially when violence and pr

    Milan leaned against the door slightly once they disappeared around the corner.“You terrified my friends,” she muttered.“That was not intentional.”“That somehow makes it worse.”For a second, neither of them spoke.“Let’s talk inside.” Milan broke the silence.“They filed publicly,” Vito said coldly the moment he stepped inside. “Antonio wants humiliation before judgment.”He looked dangerous as he spoke and it was so hot that Milan couldn't look away.She closed the door and swallowed hard.“I already know.”“I will handle it.”The tone alone told her exactly what he meant.“No.”His violet eyes snapped toward her. “What do you mean by ' no '?” Vito said coldly. “If he ends up dead like his brother, how exactly is he supposed to fight for cus

    The court summons arrived on a rainy Tuesday morning.Milan had just returned to the hotel after meeting with a private investigator when the receptionist stopped her quietly near the lobby.“Miss Romano?”She turned.“There are legal documents for you.”The moment she saw the official seal, anxiety curled through her stomach.By the time she reached her suite and opened the envelope, her hands had already gone cold.Antonio Rocci was filing for custody of Roma.The accusations hit harder with every line she read.Unfit mother.Psychological instability.Dangerous criminal associations.Complicity in the murder of Giovanni Rocci.Worst of all, Antonio’s lawyers claimed Milan had conspired with Vito to orchestrate Giovanni’s death for financial and personal gain.For several seconds, she simply stared

    The lights flickered briefly across his face, honing the cold intensity in his expression.He wore dark clothes as usual, no tie, and his sleeves were rolled slightly upward.He looked nothing like the sophisticated capo tonight and more like the dangerous man the city whispered about quietly.Her breath seized.“You’re coming with me,” he growled. Before she could respond, he lifted her effortlessly into his arms.“Vito!” Milan hissed. “Put me down.”Around them, Priscilla and Lillian stared in complete shock.“Oh my God,” Priscilla whispered loudly. “THAT is the Don?”Lillian looked close to fainting from excitement.Meanwhile, Milan was mortified.“Put me down right now,” she demanded again, struggling slightly against him.Vito ignored her completely.People moved out of his path automatically as he carried

    Milan’s phone rang just after midnight. She had been sitting alone on the balcony of her hotel suite, files spread across the small table beside her while the street lights stretched below. The moment she saw her father’s name on the screen, unease settled immediately in her chest. She answered at once. “Papa?” “Milano.” His voice sounded strained and tired. The older man didn't hesitate to talk about why he had called. “Antonio Rocci came to the house today.” She straightened instantly. “What?” “He brought armed men with him,” he disclosed quietly. “There was nothing I could do.” Milan’s expression hardened. “Did he take Roma?” “No. But he demanded a DNA test for her.” For a moment, all sound around her disappeared. Her grip tightened painfully around the phone. “I’m sorry,” her father continued quickly. “I tried to refuse, but there were too many of them and I…” His voice

    “How many cases are there?” Milan asked Vito but he provided no response.“Five?”Vito was still silent.“Ten?”“Enough,” he barked. She looked back at him. “And you are handling all of it alone.”“I said enough.”His cold voice cut through the room harder this time, but she heard what rested beneath it. Exhaustion. Frustration. Maybe even desperation carefully buried beneath anger.Neither of them spoke until Milan broke the silence. “You protected everyone else your entire life,” she said carefully. “But you never learned how to let someone stand beside you.”Vito laughed again. This time, the sound carried no amusement at all. Only exhaustion honed into anger.“Depending on people is the quickest way to get killed.”The words settled heavily between them.Milan felt her chest tighten painfully because she understood immediately that he was not speaking only about

    When Milan opened her eyes for the first time after the episode, she saw a calm, pretty woman. A doctor or a nurse, she could not tell. She noticed she had stopped shivering, but the memory of Vito witnessing her breakdown pressed against her temples, making her headache pulse stronger. “Signor

    Mateo straightened, finally continuing. “Trailing him is possible but infertile, capo. He’s a vice police superintendent.” Vito’s dry chuckle cut through the stiff tension. “A vice superintendent of the country… is a drug dealer. What a shame.” He snatched the glass and downed it in one swift gul

    Milan had been awake. The moment Vito shut off the engine of his car, she jolted back into consciousness, though she didn’t dare let him know she was awake. In her chest she prayed he would leave her in the car so she could escape, it would be easy enough to find something in his car to break t

    “Damn, still so fucking stubborn," Vito muttered under his breath, holding Milan against him. Her small frame felt weightless compared to the chaos surrounding them. His gaze fell to the crimson pool spreading across the floor. Giovanni's blood. It trailed to the man's crumpled body and the destr
