With the loss of her bookstore and a mysterious job offer, Alena gets roped into a life she never thought possible, with a mafia Don who's not nearly as scary as he's supposed to be and his younger brother who's becoming increasingly obsessed with her.

But in the end, will it be Alena's past, stupidity or perseverance that Finally sets off Marcello and sends him oover the edge?

I was staring blankly at the water in my glass when Seth tilted my head so I was looking at him, "Cosa è successo al tuo viso d'angelo? hm?" I continued my blank stare trying to figure out if he said something in Italian and actually expected me to understand it. (What happened to your angel face?)

"lei sembra una merda" Marcello chimed from the other side of the dark room. He had been so quiet I had actually forgotten he was here. (She looks like shit)

Seth sent his brother a withering glare but even my tired self could tell he was shocked by his brother's words, whatever they were. "smettila di cercare di incantarla in una lingua che non capisce bastardo frustato dalla fica. è patetico" Marcello continued. (Stop trying to charm her in a language she doesn't understand, you pussy whipped bastard. It's pathetic)

At this point, I was completely done with the Italian dual credit program and was about ready to fall asleep on the kitchen counter so I got up and started walking out of the room.

"Buonanotte Lucido" Marcello uttered as I walked off and I swear if I could have, I would have taken off my shoe and whipped it at his head.

He deserved it.

Tomorrow I'll throw my shoe at him tomorrow.
