Nico's hand stayed flat on Mara's coat, resting over the swell of her stomach. The silence in Don Gio's study was broken only by the muffled sound of the rain beginning to tap against the high arched windows.
"Define problem, Luca," Nico said in a low and even voice, without moving from Mara's side.
Luca stood in the open doorway of the study, holding his encrypted radio. "A car just pulled up to the outer gate. Unmarked gray sedan. No escort, no weapons visible on sensors."
"Whose car?" Mara asked.
"Gianni's," Luca replied softly. "He arrived three minutes behind Aunt Rosa's convoy."
Nico's eyes narrowed slightly as he looked at Mara.
For months, Gianni had been a ghost… a shadow moving behind secure servers, executing Rosa's commands, wiping CCTV feeds, and maintaining the financial ledgers that had just brought down Don Bruno and exposed Don Greco.
"Is Rosa with him?" Nico asked.
