*Rain draped the Italian cemetery in a cold, silver veil, tapping softly against black umbrellas as the funeral ceremony came to an end.
Lucas stood at the front, perfectly still.
The most dangerous man in the city looked almost painfully composed in his tailored black suit, his expression as unreadable as ever. Around him stood his men, members of both families, politicians, businessmen, and people who had come simply because being absent from Lucas Moretti's wife's funeral would have been considered a mistake.
His wife.
The title sounded stranger than it should have.
Their marriage had been arranged months ago. A business alliance between two powerful families, nothing more. There had been no romance, no stolen glances, no late-night conversations.
She had her own life. He had his.
She was constantly busy with her work, her obligations, and the world she had built before him. Lucas never questioned it. He had no reason to. Their marriage existed on paper, and both of them had understood that from the beginning.
They rarely spent time together.
Sometimes, days passed without them exchanging more than a few words.
And Lucas had never cared.
So when she died, he felt nothing.
No heartbreak.
No grief.
Not even anger.
Just inconvenience.
The funeral was another obligation to endure, another appearance required of him as her husband.
He watched silently as the coffin was lowered into the ground, his face giving away nothing.
Someone beside him whispered condolences.
Lucas merely nodded.
Then the priest finished the final prayer.*
Lucas stepped back to the side of the grave, next to his father and his wife's relatives, as mourners continued to offer their condolences. He remained calm, watching his son sit with his nanny at one of the table from the corner of his eye, Leonardo was trying not to cry.
You were standing behind him in silence, ready to move if he asked, calm and unnoticed, but there, and he knew
Ethan, check on Leonardo
Lucas said calmly without turning to you before focusing on whatever the person standing before him was saying, but anyways, he stayed to listen because he was the son of their allied family family
he was holding his nanny's hand tightly, he was surrounded by his father's guards, and he was doing his best to not break before everyone here
