It’s almost midnight when we disembark and River and I make sure everyone has a car to take them back to their respective homes. Well, all except Freya, since she’s decided to go home with her boy toy and I’m not paying for that shit.

Once everyone is gone, we thank the crew and head to our own town car. Well, it’s more of a limo but whatever, I needed the space for my mother and Lina.

“She’s lovely, River. How far along is she?” my mother asks as we slide into the back of the car, Enzo at the wheel watching us in the rear-view mirror.

“Six and a half months. Doesn’t she just glow? I’ve always heard about the glow of pregnancy, but it’s the first time I’ve actually witnessed it.” River’s love for her sister-in-law is awe-inspiring.

Before Lina has the chance to get inside, I take her in my arms and hug her tightly to me. She stiffens like my touch is physically hurting her.

“I’m sorry.” My words are barely audible from the lump that’s lodged in my throat. “Mi dispiace, sorella.” I repeat my apology in our mother tongue and rest my forehead to the crown of her head.

“Me too.” She squeezes her arms around my waist for only a brief second before she sniffs and gets into the car.

When Enzo turns, everyone gasps. Everyone except for me. I’m livid.

“What happened to your face?” My mother’s instincts to heal are in full effect. Enzo is like a child to her. From the bruise that’s already darkening around his eye and the cut that’s actively bleeding, I’m guessing a fist fight. The tip of his tongue darts out as he licks the drop off his lip and I notice his wince when he sniffs. Hmm, he may even have a broken nose. My gaze lands on his knuckles, his grip on the wheel so tight it’s like the thing has personally offended him, and I shake my head in frustration. This is his M.O. when he’s pissed off at the world. Picks a fight, gets his ass beaten even though he could easily avoid getting touched when fighting on a good day.

“Nothing worse than the other guy.”

Motherfucker.
