Chapter 17 - Alessandro

My apartment was on the penthouse floor of a five-star building.

It was the whole floor.

My mother had resisted us moving out, her theory had been because our family home was so large, and us staying together was safer. Yet, all of us had a place.

Even Arianna, and she was our mother's favorite.

However, since I'd become Don of the Sorvino family, I had basically moved out despite her reservations.

It was grand and worth millions of dollars, I'd picked it out to be on my own, but there were times when I didn't mind company.

Katya and I were having dinner together. We had been married for days now, but she had her living arrangements, and I had mine.

I hadn't expected her to agree without putting up a fight, but that was exactly what had happened.

So far, though, we hadn't said a word to each other.

I wanted to change that. “I’ve given it some thought, and I think that it would be best for you to move in with me, Kitten.”

“I think that you should stop thinking then, Ales.”

I reached for my wine glass. “Again, with my name, would it not be better to call me something…sweeter?”

Her eyes flickered up to glare at me from across the table, and I winked at her.

“I can call you Alex or Mr. Sorvino. You can pick.”

I chuckled and put down my cutlery. “I suppose Alex will do for now, then. When do you plan on moving in?”

“I’ll set my calendar to remind me next century. I don’t know what part of this arrangement is difficult to understand. It is a marriage of convenience. We married for business purposes, and it was bad enough that I took your surname, I will not move in with you.”

“You changed your name by your choice, Katya, I had no hand in it.”

“Really?” She put her cutlery down and glared at me full on. “Are you sure you did not…I don’t know, go behind my back to speak to my father?!”

This was really getting to her.

I couldn’t stop myself from smiling. For the shit she'd started the morning after our wedding, I didn’t know how this evening would turn out.

I leaned forward with my elbows on the table, pretending that I was trying to remember. “I cannot say that I did you know.”

“Oh please!” she scoffed, reached for her glass of wine, and downed it.

“Well, I didn't talk to him about the surname, but I will say something to him about us living together.”

“You will do no such thing.” Her eyes narrowed to slits.

I scoffed and raised a brow. “No?”

“My house is enough for me, thank you.”

“The house you continue to live in because your father sometimes sleeps over?” She gave me a look, and I shrugged. “I had a…an investigation done when you tried to steal my property…the first time.”

“My god! You—” she was losing her head, but just then, Katya caught herself and gave me an inquiring look.

She caught me, that I was purposely pushing her buttons, and she laughed.
