Chapter 18 - Sofia
I feel relief as we pull up the driveway to my fatherâs home. I see the familiar faces of his guards, as well as guards I donât recognize but know to belong to Dominicâs family.
The shock that Carmila was planted in my life and that she betrayed me is still weighing heavily on my heart, but I canât lie; as much as I detest killing, Iâm secretly glad sheâs gone for what she did.
I feel a bit guilty for feeling that way, but maybe Dominic is right, and itâs time to stop being a naive little princess.
I climb out of the car as my father steps out the front door, his arms open. I run to him, wrapping my arms around him as I hug him tightly, and he crushes me against him.
âOh, Sofia, my angel. Iâm so glad youâre okay.â My father lets go of me and kisses my head. âYouâre safe now, donât worry. Weâre going to go straight to the airport and straight back home.â
I frown. I know Iâm in danger, but Iâll always be in danger. I donât want to abandon my dreams of studying because of it.
âPapa,â I say quietly, âI donât want to return to Argentina.â
My father shushes me and reaches out to shake Dominicâs hand. âSorvino, thank you for looking after Sofia. We dispatched the remainder of Joseâs people who were watching the house. We should be safe.â
Dominic shakes his hand and nods. âYouâll never be safe, not while Jose is in power.â
A man comes out of the house and grins at Dominic. âWell done, Sorvino. Ah,â he claps his hands together, âHere is your brother now.â
A car pulls up, and a man looking like Dominic gets out, so it must be his brother Alessandro. Two guards are by his side instantly. My father walks to him, leaving me standing there, and shakes his hand. âThank you, Don Sorvino, for your brotherâs skills and for saving my daughter.â
âLetâs talk inside,â Alessandro says, walking toward the door.
I watch as they all file inside, Dominic instantly by his brother's side. My curiosity gets the better of me, and I follow them.
âThis isnât something for you to sit in on,â my father says as he stands outside the study.
âIâ¦â I pause, then say, âI would feel safer if Iâm closer to you.â
It melts my fatherâs heart, and he nods. âFine, but say nothing.â
I nod and follow him. I sit at the back nearby Dominic, and true to my word, I feel instantly safer.
âDon Lopez,â Alessandro says, âHave you considered Andresâ proposal to take down Don Catalan and free both our families and others from his retaliation?â
âStraight to the point,â my father says. Iâve never seen him look so in charge. âI like it. Don Sorvino, understand, although I appreciate that Sofia is alive and well, I now have a war on my hands.â He motions behind him. âBack in Argentina, the Catalan allied families are attacking my families and those families who answer to me.
