Flavio and I carried Violet’s two suitcases up a thin flight of stairs to the single door leading to the room in what was probably the renovated attic.

“Thanks guys.” Violet opened the door.

The model wannabe pushed in front of me to enter the chamber first. “Where do you want the suitcase, my beautiful fiancé?”

“Not your fiancé,” I said.

“In the closet,” Violet said. “Thank you. Sadly, Flavio, we are not engaged.”

Flavio moved to the far side of the room and I placed her other bag on the floor close to the window. “Florentina thinks something’s up,” I whispered.

“I told you about Accardi holidays,” she said. “Bloodshed, fighting, Machiavellian dealings.”

“I thought you were exaggerating.”

“If anything, I underplayed it.” She plugged her phone charger into a wall socket.

“Marry me, Violet and our families will reach a truce that has been needed for generations,” Flavio said.

“She’s already engaged. To me.”

“She was promised to me before you.”

“How do you know that?”

“Because our grandfathers made a blood pact fifty years ago.”

Violet yawned. “If I’d heard about one blood pact, I’ve heard about them all. Why don’t you guys take this up some other time? I need to get some shut eye.” She pointed to the door and sat down on the bed. “Bye!”

“But—” he said.

She shook her head.

“But—” I said.

She shook her head. “You too.”

We shuffled out of the room.
