Not to mention the bloody body parts that have started showing up. It's too bad she's not scared of him. Or his unveiled threats on her life.

Worse, he can't decide if he should kill or protect her. Massimo doesn't count on Vivienne being the first person to look at him like he's human. Or demons from his past coming back to haunt him.
