One would expect Sidney Piazza's life to be completely made out for him: rich family, privileges from that money, and even protection from his community, but it isn't. Sometimes the people you most confide in are the ones that stab you in the back. Even kill you, if the time comes.
When Sidney moves to Sacramento from Yonkers, New York, away from his cousins and anything else that could affilate him to the mafia life, he's met with an obstacle he never in a million years expected.
That life-turning, downright insane, forbidden obstacle comes in the form of a girl who hates cheese and can't walk in platform heels. Her name: Alanna Silva.
And one might ask: what is the problem with this girl? It's definitely more than what meets the eye.
All these emotions just collect dust in the end.

Our Silent Vows
She was mine long before she knew it. I had been raised in shadows, in a world where power was survival and choice was an illusion. But then there was her. She slipped into my life unexpectedly and defiantly, her eyes too bright for a town like this one. She was unafraid of what lay beneath the surface, thinking she could walk away and resist the pull. But every step she took only bound her tighter to me. She was delicate but stubborn, fierce enough to face what others ran from, even if she didn't fully see it yet. She was the only thing I had ever chosen. I would break anything to keep her, everything, even her illusions of freedom. Because in a world that offered no choices, she became my one certainty. I will carve that truth into the world, with blood, if I have to. R.
