She's gonna give him ideas if she says stuff like this haha

“Why keep the cat if he’s got issues?”

“He kind of moved in without asking. I couldn’t throw him out.”

That doesn't sound endforceable in the normal world lol and it's a bit too much💀

“That nod . Because it looked like you were giving the waiter permission to address me.”

“He’s not from the Family, Milene. Therefore, he is not permitted to look at my wife unless I allow him to.”

I have no comeback to that, so I just stare at him.

he needs some anger management therapy😂

Salvatore places his left hand at the edge of the table and tilts his head, regarding me in silence. Is he considering my proposition? Oh God, please make him say yes.

The table between us suddenly flies to the side, knocking me backward in my chair. Dishes and cutlery crash onto the cobbled ground. Pieces of food and broken glass scatter everywhere within a five-foot radius. I stare at my husband with wide eyes as he gets up and takes two casual steps until he’s standing right in front of me.

Leaning back in my chair, I tilt my head up. “That would mean no, I assume?”

“Vita mia,” he whispers. “Please. Get down.”

Another bullet ricochets off the floor to our right, and I press myself more tightly to him. His body is shaking as though he has a fever.

“I love you, Tore,” I say into his ear.

“Milene.” His eyes are red. “I’m going to bite you. With all my strength.” The gunfire still rages, but I hear now how his voice trembles. “It’s going to hurt, Milene. Very much. Get. Off. Me.”

I smile. “Be my guest. I’m not moving.”

Bullets hit something over our heads and part of the metal construction comes crashing down behind us, sending dust and shards of debris into the air. Salvatore’s breathing becomes erratic, his chest rising and falling at a maddening speed. As I watch, a tear rolls down his cheek.
