Five years ago, I faked my death to escape the mafia.
Today, they hand him the kill order
With my name on it.
Im living under a new identity with our son.
The child he doesnt know exists.
Gabriel has his fathers eyes and my stubborn heart.
But when a Salvatore soldier spots me at the market, everything unravels.
Enzo Moretti.
The man who took my innocence in my familys gazebo.
Who chose loyalty over love when I begged him to run.
Who mourned me for five years, never knowing I was alive.
Now hes standing in his bosss office, staring at an assassination contract.
My name bleeding through the paper like spilled wine.
There a problem, Enzo? Luca asks, watching him break.
But Enzo doesnt know the half of it.
That Im not just alive—Im a mother.
That the child playing on the beach has his hands, his silence, his deadly focus.
That I helped his bosss wife disappear, and they want me dead for it.
The hitman who never missed a target
Who built his life on blood and obedience
Who swore hed never choose love over family
Is about to discover that some betrayals run deeper than death.
And when he finds us?
When he sees what we made together?
The truth won’t just destroy him.
It will set the underworld on fire.
