181 Bait “Sounds like the equivalent as using him as bait.” Lena replied, not exactly thrilled with Jovani saying even though she couldn’t deny that it was a useful tool to use to collect information. “In a way if that is how you want to look at it. It’s not like he would be any sort of danger. I would always be around with him and most of it would be during meetings or gatherings that occur.” Jovani replied with a shrug. “Unlike you, we do tend to host more social events and not do…

180 Adjusting Lena was now going to have to take time to process something else that was shifting for her. The fact that Samuel was the head of the Vedova Nera family wasn’t going to change much in terms of their relationship- that was going to be the same as it always had been. The image change and the fact that he was going to have a lot to do like the princess was what she was going to need to get accustomed to. The fact that he was the head of a mafia family made hiding anything from until…

179 The Head By the time the third day had passed and Samuel was set to come back, Lena had come even more impatient than she had been when he was coming back with Jeff from being with his parents for his birthday. At least she knew the reasons why it might’ve taken Jeff to get back to the estate. With Jovani, she couldn’t be certain of anything. Samuel did keep her updated as they got closer, but closer only meant being more than an hour away. Seemed to her like the other was driving slower than…

178 Final Touches “He says there’ll only be a total of four other people coming including Jovani.” Lena informed her father as she read the text that Samue had sent her. “Did he happen to mention if one of them was the head of the Vedova Nera?” Zane asked as he wrote down the information that his daughter had given him. The princess simply shook her head in response to this question. “He left that bit of information out and I get the feeling that that would be thanks to his cousin.”…

177 Things To Get Used To Samuel found that during his first two days at the Vedova Nera estate that there were a lot of things that he would have to get used to. Being an outsider to a mafia family dynamic was a lot different from being right in the middle of it. Jovani hadn’t been lying when he said that there would be a lot for the other to get used to. From new family members, the way staff addressed him, to the clothes he wore, and the way that he was expected to hold himself. apparently…

176 Distractions Lena didn’t get to sleep long before Ryan was the one who had decided to come out and talk with her. She mildly wished that she had bothered to lock the door once she had heard it open, but less so when he announced his presence. “What are you doing out here sulking when you should be focusing on other stuff?” He asked a he took a seat in one of the chairs that wasn’t that far away where she was laying down. “Sulking? I think you must be mistaken because I was actually…

175 Frustrated Lena knew it and was fairly certain that most of those in her family could tell that her mood had dropped after Samuel had left and even more so that after hours she had only gotten two text messages from him. One about halfway through the trip and another after they reached the estate. She knew that this was likely due to the fact that there was a lot they would be busy with. Not being there to know exactly what was going on though made her worry about what to expect over the next…

174 Vedova Nera Estate The estate certainly looked on the outside as extravagant as if not more so than the one the Red Scorpions had. The only difference was it didn’t look like they had as much land as Lena’s family had. Most likely because they worked within a different sector. Jovani couldn’t stop himself from rolling his eyes when he saw that Alonso was already standing outside and pacing. Was he really still worrying that much even though they were on their way back? It wasn’t like…

173 Hierarchy Of Power The drive to where the Vedova Nera residence was located was more pleasant than Samuel had expected it to be. Not say that he minded being around Jovanni or that he wouldn’t make good company. It was more that it was a different experience from when he drove with Lena who seemed to prefer to keep a peaceful quiet between the two of them when they were together. Compared to the princess, his cousin was far more talkative about the things that he didn’t mind bringing up.…

172 Leaving Samuel had forgotten that he was the only one who had to pack anything as his mother’s wardrobe was limited due to what she had brought from the hotel. She hadn’t been expecting to stay for so long but Agatha, Julian’s wife had clothes that she could borrow for a few extra days. Evalyn wasn’t so worried about how that would work out once they reached the Vedova Nera estate, she knew that there would be clothes leftover that she could borrow for the three days before they would be…
