Chapter 109
ROMEO'S POV
Hours after firing that shot, the room had finally gone quiet.
Antonio had dragged his exhausted self away, and Nonna… she'd walked out with her. That frightened little mouse.
The satisfaction of seeing Katya flinch still buzzed in my veins. I even laughed, actually laughed until the memory of Nonna's glare cut it short. That glare…
Dio.
I remembered how my Nonna had given me the deadliest glare I had ever seen in my entire life. I'd never seen her look at me like that before.
As if I were the disappointment itself.
My jaw clenched. Instead of seeing Katya for what she truly is....a threat, a reminder of her son's death....Nonna had rushed to her.
Protected her. Held her like she mattered.
Like she belonged here. Like she was family.
I sank back into the pillows, ignoring the weakness tugging at my limbs.
Katya.
Daughter of the man who helped destroy my family… standing in my home like she belonged. I didn't regret pulling the trigger.
