2025-07-03 15:51:25Breaking News flashed across every major screen in Manhattan.
Valentina Russo, daughter of mafia mogul Giovanni Russo, is engaged to billionaire investor Jason Moretti. "The Russo Moretti peace treaty shifts overnight, catching the underworld off guard… In under an hour, the world was on fire. Russo Estate – War Room Giovanni Russo threw the glass of aged whiskey against the fireplace wall. The flames hissed, matching his fury. She humiliated me. In front of the world,he growled. Three of his top lieutenants sat silently, unsure if theyd survive the hour. Jason Moretti was dead. Erased. Buried. Apparently not,one murmured. Hes not just alive,Giovanni spat. Hes now engaged to my daughter and dragging our name through the press. Should we cancel the real wedding to the Ortiz family heir? Giovannis eyes darkened. No. Let Valentina enjoy her fantasy. He smiled, cold and cruel. Shell still walk down the aisle… even if its to her funeral. Meanwhile – The Vault, Jasons Safehouse Jason flipped through news articles while Vin secured the perimeter. Valentina sat on a leather sofa, scrolling through social media. Her engagement photo, strategically leaked was everywhere: her hand in Jasons, the ring sparkling, both dressed in black with half-smiles. Youve ruined my reputation, she said without looking up. Jason grinned. Thats rich coming from a Russo. Valentina threw a cushion at him. Jason caught it midair. Relax, he said. Now youre the queen of the headlines. I didnt ask to be anyones queen. You didnt ask to be sold off either. She looked at him, serious. Do you really think this will work? Jason sat beside her. They'll be too busy reacting to the scandal to see whats coming. Valentina tilted her head. And what is coming? Jason leaned in slightly. Collapse. From the inside out. Their eyes locked. Then Jason stood and walked to the window. Mila? The hackers voice crackled through the speaker. Tap lines are active. We just intercepted a message from Giovannis consigliere. Hes rerouting weapons to the docks tonight. Midnight. Illegal shipment. Completely off radar. Jasons voice sharpened. Coordinates? Sending now. Valentina crossed her arms. Youre going to hit it? Jason nodded. Im going to hit them where it hurts. Valentina smiled. Ill go with you. Jason raised a brow. Since when does a Russo princess raid cargo crates? Since she stopped being a pawn. Midnight – Brooklyn Docks Rain drizzled over the silent waterfront as unmarked trucks backed into warehouse bays. Armed men patrolled the docks, unaware that the tide had already turned. Jason crouched behind a steel container, night goggles glowing. Valentina was beside him, in all black, her hair tied tight, pistol at her side. You sure about this?Jason asked. She checked her weapon. Id rather be shot doing something than sit in a mansion waiting to be sold. Jason admired her fire. On my count, go loud. Three… Two… One. Boom. A flash grenade exploded in the warehouse. Chaos erupted. Jason moved like a ghost through the smoke, dropping guards with clean, brutal precision. Valentina covered him, eyes sharp, hands steady. In ten minutes, it was over. Jason reached the main crate and forced it open. Inside dozens of military grade rifles stamped with a Russian cartel seal. Valentina whistled. Thats not fashion export. Jason smirked. This is enough to implicate Giovanni in a federal gun running operation. Vins voice came through the comms. Weve got everything on camera. Sending the data packet to Mila now. Jason turned to Valentina. One more piece removed from the board. She nodded, breathing hard, adrenaline burning through her veins. Then gunshots. A second wave. Behind us!Valentina shouted. They ducked as bullets tore through crates. Jason grabbed her hand. This way! They sprinted down a narrow hallway between containers, ducking behind a loader. Jason fired back, hitting one of the shooters. But there were more. Too many. Valentina reloaded. Were boxed in! Jason activated his wrist comm. Dante now! Suddenly, a black SUV burst through the side gate, headlights blinding the attackers. Dante leaned out the window, AR-15 blazing. Jason and Valentina jumped in as the vehicle skidded out of the port and disappeared into the storm. Thirty Minutes Later – Safehouse Valentina ripped off her wet jacket, face flushed. You couldve told me we might die tonight. Jason tossed her a towel. Would you have stayed? Yes. He paused. She met his gaze. I meant what I said. Im in this now. Jason stepped closer, something raw flickering behind his eyes. You couldve been killed. And so could you,she shot back. But you still went. Ive got nothing to lose. Valentina grabbed his wrist. Dont say that. Jasons voice dropped. Its true. No,she said. Now you have something. Jason stared at her. What? Valentina whispered, Me. The silence between them cracked. Then Jason kissed her. Hard. Urgent. Real. It lasted a second maybe less, but it changed everything. Valentina pulled away slowly, breathless. That was— A mistake? Jason asked. She shook her head. Terrifying.

But not intervening.“I wanted you to hear it from me,” Valentina continued. “Before you make a choice you can’t take back.”Eva’s voice trembled. “I don’t need your stories. I have orders.”Valentina stepped closer. “And what if those orders were lies?”Eva hesitated.“I read Giovanni’s letters,” Valentina said. “He never loved anyone.

The Vatican walls flickered with satellite heat signatures.Jason stood at the head of the table. His voice was calm—but every syllable was laced with fire.“He’s planning a full coup. He wants the Five Families under one fist. His fist.”Mila flipped through intercepted comms. “Our window is small. Luciano's private militia is already en route to Vatican City. If he takes the Concordia Meeting this Sunday, it’s over. He’ll be untouchable.”Valentina—dressed in black leather, hair tied back like a crown—asked the one question everyone avoided:“What if Eva kills me before Sunday?”Silence.Jason finally looked at her.“She won’t.”Valentina whispered, “You don’t know that.”Jason walked toward her slowly.“She hesitated. Twice. And we both know what hesitation means.”Valentina nodded. “Doubt.”***Meanwhile – Hi
