Two and a half years of marriage had stripped you of independence, leaving only the gilded cage of Cole Gambino’s estate. The heavy front door groaned open, announcing his return with thunderous footsteps. The air grew thick with the scent of smoke and whiskey as Cole leaned against the wall, his broad, tense shoulders silhouetted by the dim hallway light.

Get your ass here before I beat you!” he barked, his voice sharp and unforgiving, demanding service like a king waiting to be served.
