Chapter Seventy-Two

♕—Delilah

In the evening, Lorenzo left leaving me alone in the house. Reyna and Giulia left after doing all their chores.

I walked around the house, I was afraid to go outside. The men that were patrolling the mansion weren't very nice. I could see it in their lecherous gaze, the darkness exuding off their bodies. They were the Made men of the Cosa Nostra, I had gotten lucky that I had Lorenzo, I know how bad it could be for me if some other men had gotten me.

My mind fixated on Jack and an overwhelming sense of guilt washed over me. I wondered how he was faring these past few months. I had made a vow to never be with another man but him, and yet that was exactly what I did. The first time with Alexander, it wasn't my choice, but the second time, there was no one else to blame but myself, what I did with Lorenzo was on me. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't shake the thought of what I had done – pushing Jack out of my mind and my heart to make space for Lorenzo.
