"Can you stay with me tonight, Adriano? I promise it will just be for tonight" she whispered, her voice tired. "I'd stay with you forever if you wanted," I say to her as I crawl up next to her on her bed. She cuddles herself into me and mutters a thank you. Why was this woman thanking me so much? Doesn't she realize I would give her the world if she showed any interest in it? Fuck giving her the world, I would buy her all the supposedly infinite universes if only I knew how. ____ 𝐒𝐓𝐑𝐀𝐓𝐀𝐆𝐄𝐌 𝐛𝐨𝐨𝐤 1 ꜱᴛʀᴀᴛᴀɢᴇᴍ- ᴀ ᴘʟᴀɴ ᴏʀ ꜱᴄʜᴇᴍᴇ, ᴇꜱᴘᴇᴄɪᴀʟʟʏ ᴏɴᴇ ᴜꜱᴇᴅ ᴛᴏ ᴏᴜᴛᴡɪᴛ ᴀɴ ᴏᴘᴘᴏɴᴇɴᴛ ᴏʀ ᴀᴄʜɪᴇᴠᴇ ᴀɴ ᴇɴᴅ ••• Adriano, don of the italian mafia, cold, ruthless, daring and only cares about himself and his family.
