She reminded me of a kitten; a vicious little thing that, when threatened, would rip you to shreds with her teeth and claws. Oh, I had no doubt that she was dangerous. Lethal. The fact that she could throw a knife with such speed and precision proved it. But that’s what made her so captivating. All the women in the famiglia were timid, docile, boring. They weren’t anything like her. And I was supposed to marry one of them?
