LORENZO
THE HUM of the private jet fades into the background as I sit back and
stare out the window with the lingering taste of expensive scotch on my
tongue. The leather seat creaks subtly as I shift my weight, glancing out at
the endless blue horizon through the small, oval window. The Caribbean
stretches beneath us, a reminder of the temporary peace I’ve just savored. I
can still hear my sister’s laughter mingling with the gentle breeze; a rare
sound, especially in these tumultuous times.
Luca sits across from me, his fingers tapping rhythmically on the armrest,
showing a rare sign of his impatience. My second-in-command’s eyes meet
mine, sharp and reflective like he’s calculating our next moves, which,
knowing him, he probably is. Antonio, my head of security, stands stoically
beside him, his frame filling the small space with a quiet resolve.
The intercom rings before the pilot’s voice cuts through the tension filling
the cabin. “We’ll land in Nassau soon. It should only take a few minutes to
refuel and then we’ll be on our way.”
“Thank you,” I tell him before turning to the two men who I trust with my
life. “Is everything lined up for our arrival?”
Luca leans forward, the tension in his muscles visible. “Yes. We’ve got the
boys ready at JFK to ensure a smooth welcome. Our families have been on
edge, but most of the skirmishes are settled. We hit the Grimaldis where it
hurt. They’re licking their wounds now.”
I nod, absorbing the information. The Grimaldis had underestimated the
other families, a fatal miscalculation on their part. “And our assets?”
Antonio steps in, his deep voice a contrast to Luca’s staccato rhythm.
“Protected, and the remaining threats neutralized. We’ve got eyes and ears
everywhere. Few loose ends to tie up, but nothing we can’t handle once
we’re back.”
I lean back, the tension easing from my shoulders slightly. This war started
as a ripple and grew into a tidal wave, threatening to drown everything in
our world. Everything went down when the head of the Grimaldi family
died suddenly without naming a successor and his family fractured. Each of
the two main factions of the family was determined to seize control from
the other. Their war spilled over into the other New York families,
threatening to drag us all down in the process.
I rub my temples, the weight of leadership pressing heavier than usual.
“Good. The wounds are deep, but we’ll stitch them up. The main thing is
the message was sent that no one takes on the Amante family and walks
away unscathed.”
Luca’s eyes flash with a cold, fierce loyalty. “This war will set them back
for years. By the time they regroup, we’ll be stronger than ever.”
Antonio gives a short, approving nod. “Agreed. Our men are ready for
anything. They’ve seen what happens to those who cross you.”
Our meeting is interrupted by the pilot’s announcement over the intercom,
informing us of our descent into Nassau. It’s a brief pause in our journey,
