Page 28 of Promising Her Forever

“I’ll come and help as soon as I see Rella.” Salvatore says to him.

I watch the family hug and then half of them leave. I know Fionn doesn’t want to leave me, but I also know he wants to help the family out.

“You should go and help Sebastiano. I promise I’ll stay with the family and I have Oliver.”

“I don’t want to leave you. But I know I can help get your shop ready too. Let me talk to Enea. I want you to have more than just Oliver with you.”

I watch him go over to Enea to talk to him. Daphne comes and sits next to me.

“I think your new family is a really good one.” She whispers to me.

“You know they’re your family too.” I smile at her.

“We’re two lucky bitches.” She chuckles softly. “And I’m really glad Fiorella’s going to be okay.”

“Me too, I don’t think I’ve ever been so scared before.”

Fionn comes back over to us.

“Enea’s said that you’ll be safe while you’re here with all of them. There are a few bodyguards here and they’ll be watching you both. Oliver will not leave your side too.”

I stand up and hug Fionn. “Please be careful. I can’t lose you.”

“I will, mo fhíorghra. Let me know if you decide you want to head home.”

“Okay.” I nod as I kiss him. He leaves with the last of the guys that are heading out.

I overhear Enea talking to Giacomo about someone picking Scrapper up. I keep hearing that name. I want to ask questions, but I don’t think I’m allowed to just yet. Finally, Rosaura comes out and tells us that we can all go to Fiorella’s room. I follow everyone into the room and one by one we all hug her.

Fiorella looks at me and takes my hand.

“That look on your face is telling me that you’re thinking this is your fault. But it’s not. So wipe that look off your face. We’re family and everything’s okay. I’m fine. So, what’s been going on since I was out cold in surgery?” she smiles.

Seraphina, Oliver, Ares and Apollo tell her about Daphne and I finding out about their animals.

“I wish I had been there.” Fiorella laughs.

“I’m not sure I believe what I saw yet. I mean how is this even possible?” I laugh.

“Wait till you see all of them. We all say we wish we could do it.”

Salvatore and Gianluca, Fiorella’s triplet brothers come rushing in and hug her.

“What’s wrong with you? Don’t you’re supposed to avoid getting shot? And before you open your mouth, I talked to Marco.” Salvatore frowns at his sister.

Fiorella scrunches up her face.

“What do you expect from Leonardo Mancini’s daughter?” she snaps at him.

“I expect my baby sister to no step in front of a fucking bullet.”

“Watch your mouth, Mijo.” Their mamà says to him.

“Sorry mamà, but Fiorella should’ve listened to Marco.”

“What a narc.” Fiorella says as she glares at Marco.

“Fiorella Mancini.” Rosaura frowns at her daughter.
