Chapter Nineteen
Sienna paced the length of her apartment from the window to the door and back again, eyes darting to the clock over the stove with each pass. Nerves mingled with anticipation and buzzed along her skin.
This wasnât what she envisioned happening when she came back to Sicily. This wasnât the revenge sheâd planned for. But seeing Drago the other day cemented it in her mind. There were more men responsible for her pain and suffering than just her uncle and cousins. And she might as well make good use of her time on the island if she had some to spare.
Sheâd spent hours and hours digging names out of her uncleâs files. Heâd been a little smarter with these, spreading the names out across different folders and databases instead of keeping everything in one spot. The fact that her uncle had killed his only brother was a secret he guarded better than most of the others.
Her father had been a popular man in the Gallo organization. Loyal to a fault. A good soldier and second in command. Not that his loyalty had earned him much. Just a bullet to the brain and his family annihilated.
It was smart, really, for Nero to take them all out at once. The need for revenge festered in the body, taking root and growing stronger with each passing year. The longer she had to wait, the more she wanted him dead. The more she wanted to see his lifeless eyes staring at nothing the way Pietroâs had.
She only wished she had more time to make him suffer, to pour all of her rage and grief and anguish into him so he hurt as much as she did. But her plan didnât allow that much time. The whole thing was a long shot already.
And the Bianchis wanted it to look like a suicide. Their enforcer Alexei had far more practice with that than she did, but sheâd been brainstorming ways to change her plan. As long as it ended with him dead by her hand, she didnât care how it happened.
Turning at the window, she glanced at the clock again. If Luca wasnât here in two minutes, she was leaving without him. She had a narrow window of where her target was going to be and for how long. If she missed it, she might not get the chance again.
The sky was painted in pinks and purples when Luca finally knocked on her door. He swept in, steps faltering when he saw what she was wearing. His eyes raked up and down her body, lingering on her breasts before stopping on her face.
âAre you planning on killing him or seducing him?â he wondered.
âBoth,â she replied, grabbing her purse off the counter and slipping it over her shoulder.
âSienna.â He gripped her arm when she turned for the door and tugged her back against him. âWhat did I say about men touching you?â
âLuca. We donât have time for you to be possessive. Once every two weeks, this guy goes to a strip club thatâs little more than a brothel on the edge of the red-light district.
