"What happened to you? And who is that girl?" Enzo asks looking at me. I sigh. My body hurts too much.

"Focus on the road. I'll tell you later. The Don would want to hear the story first." I told him.

We arrived at the house after a half an hour drive. Enzo helped me out of the car. I saw my Papà and Mamma waiting for me at the front door. He looked deadly, his gaze softened when he saw me. Do I really look that bad? I pointed the couch to Enzo and he helped me sit down on the couch.

"Salvatorre! Who did this to you?" Papà shouted. Enzo and I looked at each other, he only calls me by my full name when he is angry. I stared at him blankly to not show any emotion or pain.

"Ricco knew I'm back home. He and some of his men drugged me. They beat me and tried to bury me alive." I explain to them. Enzo clenched his first. Papà pursed his lips and everyone in the room can feel the anger radiating from him. Mamma carefully hugged me and cried.

"How did you escape? And why are you dressed like that?" Papà demanded. He commanded one of the maids to call our doctor.

"A beautiful girl saw them burying me alive. She dug me from the grave and saved me. She patched me up as best as she can." Showing them the bandages on my torso. I tried my best to not smile when an image of Lily smiling popped in my head.

"A girl? A girl saved you? How much money does she need to pay her back?" he asked.

I raised my eyebrow at his question. "I don't think he needs any payment from us. She just genuinely wanted to help me." I politely say. She even cried for me while trying to save me, I say to myself.

"I want to meet her, I want to thank the reason why my Mimmo is still alive," Mamma genty says. (Child/baby)

"Si Mamma. I'll invite her for you." I smile at her, I think Mamma will like Lily a lot.

One of our men informed us that the Doctor will be arriving soon. Enzo assisted me in walking to my room. Mamma and Papà followed behind us.

Doctor Neri did a full body check up and brought several apparatus with him. After several hours of treating me. He finally finished writing and addressed all of us. "Don Salvatorre has 2 broken ribs. It might take 3-6 weeks to heal. I will give some breathing exercise he needs to do, to avoid further complications. He might get a severe headache from the blows he received on the head, but he does not have a concussion. The person who cleaned and bandaged your wound did a great job in avoiding infection and severe blood loss. I will also provide instruction on how to clean the wounds." He stated. He looked at me and Papà, waiting to be dismissed .

I thanked him and Papà waved his hands, indicating that he is dismissing the Doctor. The doctor quickly leaves and his nurses follow him behind, bringing all the apparatus with them.

"I will assign you to lighter tasks for now. We will talk about revenge after you healed. Capisci?" he asked. (understand). I nodded. Mamma gives me a kiss on the forehead before leaving my room with Papà.

"We just got out from the 3 years training and you already got buried alive." Enzo sighs. "But on the bright side, Lily is so beautiful." he smirks.

I grabbed my dagger from the nightstand and threw it at him. The bastard dodge and the dagger smashed the mirror behind him. "Lily is mine, tried to touch her again like you did earlier. I will personally torture you on one of the chambers" I snarled at him.

"What was that for? You always give me your girls after you are done with them" he said while laughing.

"I'll say it for the last time Lorenzo. Lily is mine and I don't have any plan on letting her go." I told him. I do mean it. The first time I see her when she opens the casket, I know that I don't only want her, I need her.

"Wow. This is the first time I hear that from you. You actually like this girl huh?" He looks at me, amused by what I said. I did not respond and just smiled at him. He shook his head in disbelief.

A maid knocks on the door and Enzo gives her permission to enter. She gave a paper bag to Enzo and he asked the maid to clean the mirror I broke.

"Your new phone, It already has all of your old contact and setting." he said, handing it to me. He pulled his phone from the pocket and started texting. "And I already sent Lily's number to you" I nod my head and turn on the phone. I save her name as "My Angioletto". (little angel)

A yawn escapes from me. "I need to rest. I want a report about Lily on my desk by tomorrow. Everything about her." I commanded.

"Understood Don. Text me if you need anything." I give him a nod. He pat me on my shoulder and leaves the room.

Sighing, I opened the messaging app and texted Lily.

S: Hello my angioletto. I can't thank you enough for saving my life. I would love to see you and get to know you more after I recover. -Salvatorre.

I waited for a few minutes, fighting my sleepiness to wait for her reply. I smiled when I heard my sms notification.

My Angioletto: I would also like to get to know you. Take care and rest well. 😊

I put my phone on the nightstand and lay on my bed. You will be mine, my angioletto. I let sleep take over my tired body.
