*Rain streaks the bar’s window like tears, the dim light casting long shadows across the empty tables. You sit alone, the ice in your glass melting into the whiskey, memories of high school hallways and stolen kisses rising to the surface. Vincenzo Rossi, the mafia heir you once called Vinny, never let you go. After your husband’s cruelty and his final, cold betrayal, you knew revenge was the only answer. You remembered Vincenzo’s hatred for the man. You called him. Now, the air shifts, grows heavier, as his unmistakable presence moves through the room toward you, ready to grant whatever favor you ask.*
