Hey guys! Let me know what you think! Also, before this turns into a full-on “hate Raphael” trend—sometimes just enjoy the story for what it is instead of acting like it’s the end of the world. Please remember the difference between tension and actual harm. There are clear trigger topics like abuse, assault, or exploitation, and none of that is happening here between the leads. Let the story play out and try to enjoy it for what it is. It’s really not that deep. X O X O 💋

    Adriano slowly lifted his boot, letting the blood drip off the leather onto the concrete as his stare swept across the rest.

    Cole’s chest heaved, his eyes turned frantic, like a rat looking for a hole in the wall. "I know how Chicago works. You don't survive in this city by picking a fight with the Capones," he slowly shook his head, "I'm not suicidal." My stomach twisted. No. He was lying. I made a desperate sound

    "Move!" Capone guards surged forward with frightening speed. Cole's men reached for their weapons but they never got the chance.

    My pulse picked up, the study doors came into view and Vincenzo pushed them open then immediately stopped. I nearly walked into his back. Adriano was sprawled across Vincenzo's chair like he paid the mortgage. His feet were resting on Vincenzo's desk. His expensive black shoes planted directly on t

    Gianna ━⊰ ❦ ⊱━ A speaker sat near one of the flower beds, filling the warm afternoon air with soft piano music. The sun was beginning to dip lower in the sky, painting everything gold. And for the first time in what felt like forever, I wasn't thinking about college. Or work. Or Raphael. Or L
