Mafia Kings: Valentino: Chapter 99

Val’s face was buried in my neck as he murmured, “Oh my God… holy shit…”

I giggled. “You shouldn’t curse in a church.”

“Considering what we just did, I think cursing in a church is the least of my sins.”

“Mm… probably so.”

He turned his face to mine –

We kissed –

And then he broke it off excitedly.

“I forgot to tell you the good news!” He chuckled. “Well, I guess I didn’t forget so much as I got distracted.”

My heart leapt in my chest.

You don’t have to marry her!

Say you don’t have to marry her –

Please, tell me you don’t have to marry her!

But when I spoke, I kept my voice neutral and calm. “What?”

“Isabella’s gay!”

I stared at him.

Not what I’d been hoping to hear.

He kept talking. “Remember that other girl in Ortigia? Ludavica? Isabella’s with her! So they’ll be together, and you and I can be together!

“Then why is she marrying YOU?” I asked, horrified.

“Because her family doesn’t know.”

Pain flooded my heart, and I pushed him off me as I turned my face away.

“What?” he asked, confused.

I couldn’t say anything.
