Violent returned with a just-dead body. Dean was not pleased.

“What the Hell did I say? No killing!”

Violent defended herself. “This old thing breathed his last natural breath, then expired. He’s still warm. It took more patience than I’ve ever used before not to cork him off early. I thought you’d be thankful.” She pouted. Maybe letting him make decisions was a hasty choice.

“Fine. Thanks.”

Violent set the old man down, and Dean laid his mother next to the body’s neck. Her desperate suck-slurping noises made Violent smile.

“Look. She likes it. I did the right thing.” She tried to make eye contact with Giovianni—no, Dean—it was so confusing. The resemblance was still startling. Just the sight of this man made her happy, even if he barely tolerated her existence. Dean ran his hands through his hair. Giovanni had made that same movement when he was frustrated.

He looked up at her. “So now what do I do?”

Violent sat across from him in a bed of dried pine needles. The noises of his mother draining the body mixed with the night’s natural symphony.

“Well, you want to save two people. Either decide who you like better or who’s likely to die first.” She loved to watch Dean’s hands move. She just wanted him to hold her hand in one and a paintbrush in the other.

“I’m not deciding between my brother and my sister.” He punched his fists together.

“Well, I can navigate Hell, so that’s in the plus column. Jason’s most likely damned or dead by now. So that’s a negative.” She tossed her head back to look at the stars. She really didn’t want to go back to Hell.

The slurping noises stopped, and Rebecca tried to stand. Dean rushed to her side and aided her. “Please tell me I didn’t kill that man,” she said.

Dean shook his head. “No, he’d passed of natural causes—recently.” He turned to Violent. “Please bury him.”

The minion finished the task just as Dean finished explaining to his mother the dire situation of his two siblings.

“We go for Seriana first,” she said. Rebecca was far from better, but she seemed determined. “I know where Vittorio has taken her.”

Dean nodded. “Okay, I agree. At least Jason has others to rely on. Seri’s all alone.”

Violent cocked her head to the side. “Well, let’s get on this.”

They headed in the direction Rebecca’s shaky finger pointed.
