I’m so excited, I can hardly sit still.
It’s just one week until my wedding. But it’s more than just the wedding
itself I’m excited about. Like so many other mafia daughters, my marriage
is arranged. But unlike others, I had a hand in picking my future husband. A
prince of the Bratva—the pakhan’s heir.

As I sit at one end of the long dining room’s breakfast table, picking at my
plate of poached eggs, fruit, and toast, I can’t stop thinking that today is the
last time I’ll get to see my fiancé before our wedding day. With the date so
close, an entire week feels like an eternity. My skin prickles with
anticipation, my mind filled with memories of all the moments we’ve spent
together over our courtship. Of small touches and near-kisses, whispers that
hint of everything still to come.
My pulse flutters in my throat, imagining
the moment when we won’t need to stop short of a kiss any longer—when
we won’t have to stop at all. Just last week, I bought my lingerie for my
wedding night while out shopping with my friends. Now, all I can think
about is the moment that my new husband will undo my dress, and see what
I chose for him.
I’ve been lucky so far; I know that. Most girls in my position either don’t
even meet their husbands until their wedding day—or they know who
they’ll marry, but it’s not a match that they’re excited about. I’ve been to
three weddings this past year alone, and all of the grooms made me feel all
the more fortunate that my father cares about my choice in the matter.
Cared, rather. I swallow hard at the reminder that instead of my father
sitting to my right at the breakfast table, it’s now my godfather and
guardian, Salvatore Morelli. He glances up at me as I shift anxiously in my
seat, raising one dark eyebrow.
“You’re energetic this morning,” he observes idly. “Something to do with
the Lasilov heir coming by in a few hours?”
I bite my lip, unsure of how to respond. “You don’t always have to be so
irritable about it,” I mutter, unable to keep as quiet about it as I know I
should. My excitement dims just a little as I look at the stern expression on
Salvatore’s face, and my irritation grows. “I know you don’t approve of
Pyotr, but my father made the decision, not you.”
My petulance doesn’t seem to affect him. But then again, not much does. I
look away from him, wanting to return to my daydreams about my wedding
day, my first kiss at the altar, Pyotr’s lips finally touching mine after so
long. His mouth has always looked warm and soft, and I’ve thought a
hundred times at least about what it would feel like to be kissed. To be
kissed by him, the man I’m promised to.
Salvatore’s voice breaks through my fantasy again, and I grit my teeth.
“I served your father loyally for all of his life,” Salvatore says calmly. “I
will continue to do so.
