Chapter 29
Lilly
We departed Venice last night after we all returned. It was a perfect day, but now I’m bored again.
Luciano left me a few hours ago to bath whilst he went to check in with his men and work. He said they were making progress finding the person who tried to kill us. I make my way to where I can hear voices. I see Luciano sitting in a room full of computers and monitors with a few guys. On one of the screens is my father’s face….
“Amore?” Luciano says as he sees me standing at the doorway
did this?”
“Is that the man who did
“Yes, his name is Angelo…”
I cut him off. “Angelo Salvatore. 68 years old. His wife is dead and he has three children, Sam, Carlos and Ariana Salvatore…
“You know him?”
“Luciano…we should talk.”
The guys leave the room and Luciano takes my hands and leads me to a chair. I take a deep, calming breath.
“Promise me you will listen to the whole story?”
“Angel you’re scaring me.”
“Luciano, please, just please promise you’ll hear me out completely before you kill
“Amore, I would never…”
“Promise me!”
“I promise.”
“My name is Ariana Lilliana Salvatore and I am the youngest child of Angelo Salvatore.
His eyes blow wide and I feel a hard sting on my cheek before I hear the sound of flesh on flesh as he punches me in the face so hard everything goes black
I’m standing outside the door with Luca, unsure of what it is that she knows about Angelo. We stay close, hoping that once they’re finished talking, we will be brought into the loop. Maybe she has information we can use. I hear the distinct sound of someone being hit and a loud thud. Luca and I waste no time rushing into the room.
“WHAT THE FUCK?” I yell, looking at that perfect little lady laid out on the floor. Did Luciano just fucking knock her out?!
“Luciano, what the fuck?!” Luca yells as he runs to put space between him standing over her looking like he might break her neck. I go to her side and take her head in my lap, checking her pulse and eyeing the bruise forming on her cheek.
“She’s his fucking kid! She’s Ariana Salvatore and she’s been fucking lying to me! Working with him, for him, doing his fucking bidding!”
Did you listen to her or just knock her the fuck out, man?” Luca says, clearly just as angry and upset about this as I am.
“I don’t have to listen to anyone! I’m Don!‘”
