Chapter 8 - Dominic Discovers A Shocking Family Betrayal Among Guests
Dominic walked back down the grand staircase holding Ethan’s hand, his sharp gaze sweeping over the remaining guests in the ballroom.
The terrified socialites parted instantly, terrified to catch the eye of the notorious crime boss in his current murderous mood.
Dominic stopped twenty feet away from the front doors, handing Ethan over to a trusted nanny with whispered instructions.
He then walked straight toward a pale, well-dressed man standing near the mahogany bar with a half-empty glass of scotch.
“Julian,” Dominic said quietly, stopping right in front of the man.
Julian Moretti, Dominic’s own cousin, forced an uneasy smile across his sweating face.
“Dominic, thank God you’re safe! What madness is happening in this house tonight?” Julian stammered, swirling his drink nervously.
“The assassin who tried to poison my son tonight was wearing a custom silver lion medallion,” Dominic stated, his voice dangerously low.

Julian’s hand shook, causing amber liquid to slop over the rim of his crystal glass onto his designer cufflink.
“What does that have to do with me?” Julian asked defensively, glancing around at the armed guards closing in.
