Underboss

“If love could make me justify violence, spilled blood, and murder, what ruthless feeling was it?”

My life was on the right path: attending the college of my dreams, working on an innovative startup, and being surrounded by good friends.
However, none of those friends knew why my mother and I moved to the United States when I was still a child, why I never used my father’s surname, or who my father actually was – the ruler of a criminal empire.

So, when my father’s underboss steps into my perfect life, muscles and tattoos hidden under an elegant suit, telling me that for my own safety I must return to Italy, I have only one answer for him: no.

Too bad he’s not the kind of man who accepts ‘no’ for an answer.
