Mafia Kings: Valentino: Chapter 38

The next morning, Niccolo still hadn’t returned from Sicily. I knew better than to ask questions.

At 8:30, Alessandra knocked on my door. When I answered, she was grinning like a loon, her cell phone at her ear. “It’s him!”

I gasped because I thought she meant Valentino –

But then I realized she was talking about the person her grandmother knew. Her contact inside the Sicilian gangster’s operation.

“Hold on,” Alessandra said into the phone, “I’m putting you on speaker.”

When she did, I heard street sounds: voices calling in the distance, a car driving past.

“I can’t talk long,” the voice said impatiently.

It was a man, probably in his early 20s.

“This is Caterina, the person we’re doing this for,” Alessandra said. She motioned for me to speak.

“…hello,” I said hesitantly.

“Hello,” the voice said curtly. “What do you want to know?”

“We need to know if you can arrange a meeting with Valentino,” Alessandra replied.

“Yes.”

“How can you be sure?” Alessandra asked.

“Because I’m lookin’ at him right now.”

My heart leapt in my chest.

“Valentino’s there with you?!” I cried out.
