Chapter 2 - Domenico Escorts Conrad And Miriam Off The Estate
The heavy silence of the manicured lawn was broken only by the crunch of gravel beneath Domenico’s polished leather shoes.
He kept one arm securely wrapped around three-year-old Eli, who buried his tear-stained face into his father’s custom wool vest.
Conrad struggled to his feet from the shattered remains of the lawn chair, his face contorted with violent, unmasked fury.
“You’ll regret this, Domenico; you don’t know who you’re messing with in this town,” Conrad spat, brushing dirt from his trousers.
“I know exactly who you are, Conrad, and you’re standing on private property you no longer have permission to occupy,” Domenico replied coldly.
Two burly bodyguards stepped forward, flanking Conrad and Miriam with expressions carved from solid granite.
“Get off my estate before I let my men throw you both into the public street like common trash,” Domenico warned.
Miriam grabbed her husband’s arm, shooting one last venomous glare toward little Eli before turning toward the iron gates.

“This isn't over, Domenico; the syndicate won't forget this insult,” Miriam hissed under her breath as she walked away.
Domenico watched them retreat down the long driveway until the security gates clicked shut behind their luxury sedan.
