"I'm curious about Eugene's thoughts too."

Don Luciano suddenly said. Eyes completely different from his usual ones—heavy and dull—were staring directly at Eugene. With the boss speaking that way, Eugene could no longer refuse.

"My thoughts are..."

Eugene paused, looking briefly at Valentine. He was looking at Eugene with eyes so deeply sunken that his thoughts were impossible to guess. Valentine, who wanted war and wanted Giovanni Belmonte dead, knew that Eugene opposed war. Eugene avoided Valentine's eyes and turned his gaze to Don Luciano.

War should be avoided.

That was Eugene's thought. But given these people's nature as mafiosi, that was a ridiculous notion. Then minimizing it would be the next best alternative.

"We should make them pay, but we shouldn't touch Giovanni Belmonte, the boss."

Mateo exhaled a faint sigh filled with regret.

"First, the other three families wouldn't agree, and second, even if we got their agreement or tacit consent, if we hit Giovanni and bring down B

    After collecting himself, Don Luciano returned to his normal composure. As if nothing had happened, he looked at Eugene and spoke."That boy, his appearance is the spitting image of his mother, but inside he's a typical Luciano man.""...Yes.""And we Lucianos need calm advisors to put on the brakes. I had Mateo."Don Luciano glanced at Mateo. Mateo placed his hand on Don Luciano's shoulder and smiled broadly."And that boy has chosen you."Don Luciano's eyes fixed on Eugene. The old man's black eyes were as sharp as if they were seeing right through Eugene."As you might guess, I had you investigated a bit.""Yes.""Adopted by foster parents as an infant, raised in a relatively affluent environment without facing hardships.""That's correct.""For someone with such a background, you seem to be adapting well here.""...""Eugene.""Yes.""Can I entrust Valentine to you?"The distinctively Italian black eyes stared directly into Eugene's eyes. It was a gaze that seemed to penetrate his

    "Eugene. I didn't expect you to show up here at a time like this."The young boss of Confezzioni, standing in the middle of the glass greenhouse, was dressed in an expensive black suit as he always was whenever Eugene met him. Contrary to Eugene's expectation that it would take quite some time to meet him, Don Datero was already in this glass greenhouse behind the flower shop in Queens when Eugene arrived."I didn't expect Don Datero to be here at this hour either.""Seems like there's some connection between us."Don Datero smiled lightly."So, what brings you all the way here? Should I take it as acceptance of my offer?""That's not it."At Eugene's firm response, Don Datero exhaled softly with a "Hmm." But his eyes showed no particular disappointment."That's a shame. Then what business brings you here?"Don Datero asked as he ran his fingers over the flowers that filled the greenhouse, as if about to touch them. Though he asked Eugene, his eyes and attention seemed completely focu

    "It's difficult to meet right now. As you know, given the current situation... I'll contact you again.""I'll give you a number, contact me through that from now on. It will connect directly. And..."Derek paused briefly, then exhaled with apparent hesitation before speaking again."After this, casual conversation will be difficult for a while. Once this call ends, I'll report that I've made contact with you, and from then on, all conversations and meetings will be under FBI supervision.""I understand what you're saying. But Derek, there's something I need to confirm first.""Go ahead."Instead of speaking immediately, Eugene moistened his dry lips with his tongue.The file that Mateo had shown Eugene on the day of the Commission meeting.That document, which clearly outlined the genealogy of the New York Mafia, was definitely FBI material. There was a collaborator for the Mafia within the FBI.During the Commission meeting, many names of collaborators throughout the judicial system

    Valentine stared steadily into Eugene's eyes. He seemed to be trying to gauge his innermost thoughts. In truth, if he decided to extract information, he could do so at will. But instead of probing further, he gently stroked Eugene's cheek with his finger."One shouldn't casually deal with the Mafia. You might get one thing you want but end up being devoured whole in return."After quietly advising, Valentine soon wrapped his hand around Eugene's neck. With his long, powerful hand gripping Eugene's neck, he asked:"Did he touch you?""He has no interest in me that way at all.""I know that. If he had shown that kind of interest and made advances toward you, Confezzioni would be busy selecting a new boss by now.""Then why ask such a thing?"When Eugene asked, Valentine stared intently into Eugene's eyes for a moment before letting out a faint smile."I just get needlessly anxious about anyone touching even a strand of your hair.""He didn't touch a strand of my hair.""I know that too.

    "It's not certain yet, but I might have to be away from home for a while because of work. I don't have a good place to leave Angel, so if that happens, would you mind taking care of him?""Angel? How long are you planning to be away?"It probably won't be very long, but I'd feel more at ease leaving him with you. And I can see your face too while I'm at it.""Well, I'd be happy to."The voice on the other end of the line immediately brightened."I'll call you again.""Alright. Even if you're busy, make time to let me hear your voice.""I will."Eugene hung up the phone and gently stroked the nape of Angel's neck, who was sitting quietly beside him. Angel, who had been purring with his backside against Eugene's thigh, flopped over on his side. Eugene scratched Angel's side with a complicated expression.If everything goes according to plan and he manages to get out of here... He would leave America for at least a few years, or possibly forever. Since leaving New York would likely happe

    "He's probably more afraid of what Tony Rico would do to him than what we would.""Or he might genuinely not know. In this situation, they wouldn't be telling every underling about their whereabouts. To find Tony Rico, we'd need to catch someone of higher rank.""We've been poking around like rats in a hole, but the officers don't show their tails at all.""They know they're dead if they're caught, so they're hiding and not moving an inch. It's the same for our side too.""If we touch Giovanni, he'd come out like a bullet...""Who doesn't know that? The problem is that if we touch Giovanni without consent, the other families who are watching wouldn't stand still."Pol murmured with a regretful face."We've put men on Tony Rico's girlfriend, so he'll show his tail eventually. I heard he's been deeply infatuated with that woman for the past few months. Being a man with balls, he won't be able to hold out for long."Everyone nodded with dissatisfied faces at Leo's words.

    Unlike most mornings when he would blink away drowsiness, Eugene's eyes shot open as if he'd been doused with cold water. He quietly got out of bed after checking the gradually brightening window. Today was the third day, as promised by Don Datero.Valentine, who was usually asleep beside him when he woke up, was nowhere to be seen. He had gotten up before Eugene and left the bed. Eugene always thought he was quite a diligent man.When Eugene entered the bathroom, Angel followed, wagging his tail and watching intently as Eugene washed. After brushing his teeth and washing his face, Eugene stared into the mirror and took a deep breath.Don Datero had promised to connect him with one of Belmonte's executives. According to the promise, Eugene would meet with one of Belmonte's executives at a flower shop in Queens today. It was hard to predict what would happen afterward. As Don Datero had said, would Belmonte's executive cooperate willingly with Eugene, or would something unexpected occu

    Knock. Knock.There was a knock at the door. Eugene started, but Valentine paid no attention and continued focusing on what he was doing. When there was no answer, another knock sounded, followed by Jerry's voice."Boss Eugene? Valentine?""...Jerry is...""Ignore him."Valentine said irritably and increased the speed of his strokes on their dicks. His thumb rubbed Eugene's glans and the concave urethral opening. Stars flashed before Eugene's eyes."Nngh-!"Eugene tensed his waist and barely swallowed the moan that was about to escape.Knock. Knock."Boss Eugene? Are you not up yet?"Jerry called again. The door wasn't locked, so if he opened it, he would have a clear view of the current scene. But regardless of the anxiety, climax was approaching. Just a little more. Eugene gripped Valentine's forearm tightly, urging him on."Claudio. Hurry..."When Eugene urged him, a brief smile crossed Valentine's face. He soon captured Eugene's lips roughly. And with his free hand, he grabbed Eug

    Leo scratched his forehead, seemingly embarrassed by his own flimsy excuse."I'll tell the Belmontes you're on a business trip."Valentine said nonchalantly, then leaned back into the car seat. His face made it clear he had no intention of listening to any more protests."We're going to Miami on a private jet?"Jerry, who had been keeping quiet, cautiously asked Leo. When Leo nodded, Jerry raised his eyebrows as if he'd hit the jackpot.An uncomfortable silence fell over the car. Valentine had always been that kind of man, but it couldn't feel good to be dragged around like this in such a situation. Eugene didn't feel like protesting further to a man who would do as he pleased anyway, regardless of objections.How long had he been staring out the car window? Something touched his forearm resting on his leg.Looking down, he saw white fingers creeping onto his forearm. They carefully slid down his arm, across the back of his hand, and slipped between Eugene's fingers. When left undistu

    "Don Datero came to see you, didn't he? After yesterday, Eugene brother must have become the most famous person in New York. If Don Datero came all the way here to talk with you personally, that says it all, doesn't it?"Jerry chattered with an excited expression."Of course it's natural. Not only did you expose the FBI and Don Colvino's conspiracy by faking your death, but you also instantly—BANG!—took out Don Colvino while he was threatening Don Luciano with a gun to his head. This is practically like saving all of New York!""..."Hearing the heavily embellished heroic tale that Jerry had been spouting while drunk yesterday now coming out in broad daylight, Eugene felt like he wanted to clamp Jerry's mouth shut."If it weren't for our Eugene brother, wouldn't the council and all of New York have been destroyed by those FBI bastards? Right, brother?"Jerry sought agreement from Angelo Casani, who was approaching."That's right."Angelo Casani readily agreed with Jerry and went furth

    They spoke simultaneously and then fell silent at the same time."...My mouth was dry from drinking too much, so I ate some candy."Eugene calmly said, picking up the candy wrappers and putting them on the nightstand."I see."Jerry nodded, adjusting the tray to a comfortable position for Eugene with an awkward expression. Eugene straightened his posture and removed the sheet. Two more candy wrappers were revealed, scattered on the bed."...Those too?"Jerry asked. Eugene silently collected the plastic wrappers and placed them on the nightstand.The freshly made frittata stimulated his appetite. Eugene moistened his throat with water, drained half a cup of strong coffee, and immediately picked up his fork. Jerry, perched on the edge of the bed watching Eugene eat, kept glancing at the candy wrappers on the nightstand. The twitching at the corner of his mouth suggested he had something he wanted to say."Could you get me another cup of coffee?"After finishing the remaining coffee and

    "Jerry."Before Eugene could offer any comfort or greeting, Jerry's shoulders began to shake."I thought... you... were... dead..."Jerry sobbed, uttering each word separately, and as it became difficult to stand on one leg, he slowly slid downward while still embracing Eugene. Despite trying to keep Jerry upright, it was beyond Eugene's strength to support the large young man. Eventually, Jerry, just like on the first day he came to the Belmonte residence, wrapped his arms around Eugene's calves and shed tears. Tony Rico, who had initially watched with a mocking gaze, finally had to forcibly drag Jerry away, ending the emotional reunion."...I need to clean up."As the welcome was winding down, Eugene spoke while examining his disheveled appearance. Jerry, who had been sitting sprawled on the floor, sniffled and wobbled to his feet, tucking his crutch under his armpit. Perhaps because he was severely injured during the attack, or maybe because something had happened between them afte

    "I'm sorry."The elderly man holding the gun to Don Luciano's temple, Don Colvino, apologized to the Chirico brothers with a melancholy expression."Everyone would be wise not to move."Don Colvino warned, pressing the gun muzzle harder against Don Luciano's temple. Leo, who had been aiming his gun at Don Colvino from right beside him, stepped back with a troubled expression."Unbelievable."Giovanni Belmonte was the first to mutter in a cold tone. Mateo and Alberto, who had been friends with Santino Colvino for decades, stood frozen with their eyes wide open in shock."Oh, Santino. My friend."Don Luciano sighed with a face immersed in sadness. Don Colvino's face contorted as if about to cry."I'm sorry, Ricardo. But I had no choice. Melania, my only granddaughter, was arrested on drug possession charges. Ricardo, you know Melania. She's a good girl who got into college on a scholarship. She just made a momentary mistake, falling for a friend's deception.""You could have told me.""

    Just before reaching the yacht, Eugene looked at Valentine, who stood tall beside him. His golden hair, fluttering in the sea breeze, sparkled like gold dust under the strong sunlight. From the moment they boarded the yacht, Valentine and Eugene would return to being Luciano and Belmonte. It was uncertain how their relationship would unfold afterward. They hadn't discussed this point at all. But somehow, Eugene wasn't worried. He had a vague feeling that everything would work out. It wasn't forced optimism. It was simply a groundless belief that Valentine would resolve things on his own.Finally, they reached the yacht. Leo went first, pushing the wheelchair across the gangplank. Valentine followed behind."My God, Ricky! Valentine!"Mateo exclaimed, hugging Don Luciano and Valentine in turn and showering them with kisses. Alberto was no exception.Eugene walked toward Giovanni Belmonte, who stood tall. Giovanni Belmonte waited until Eugene reached him, then extended both arms to embr

    "Now, now. Since this meeting is primarily to mediate the war between Luciano and Belmonte, let's focus on resolving that first. Don't forget, with the FBI involved, we need to wrap this up quickly."Don Colvino, who had been quiet until now, stepped in to urge reconciliation. But the atmosphere for reconciliation had already been broken."We can reconcile whenever we want. Right now, it seems we need to discuss something more important first."Don Datero, who had been sitting silently with an expressionless face, spoke up. Luca Datero, a young boss only in his thirties, typically kept a low profile at such gatherings out of respect for the other more senior bosses."I believe we need to first address the evidence against Don Luciano that the prosecutor has allegedly secured. If that evidence is real, it means one of our high-ranking Cosa Nostra officials is an FBI rat. This is no time to be talking about wars or reconciliation while we're carrying such a dangerous bomb inside our ran

    The New York Council was convened again after just a few months.This council was called at the request of Don Pepe Cariello, boss of the Bonino Family, with the primary purpose of mediating the war between Luciano and Belmonte. Not only the warring parties Luciano and Belmonte, but also Colvino and Confezzioni, who had joined the conflict between the two families, immediately agreed to the council meeting. The reason was simple: Don Luciano's detention.Thanks to the council chairman facing imminent indictment, the council date was quickly established. Don Cariello, responsible for organizing this council, informed each family of the date, time, and location. Nobody raised any objections.The notified council location was an upscale residential area in Belport, Long Island. Luxury cars departing in succession from New York made their way to the driveway of the beach house. Men from the Bonino Family greeted visitors respectfully. The Bonino Family, typically considered the lowest ran

    "Pizza?"Valentine asked out of nowhere.Eugene was about to snap, "You're thinking about pizza in this situation?" but simply shrugged instead. While it was absurd that Valentine was only thinking about dinner menu without any worries or concerns, it was also just like him. And as always, watching him be so carefree and confident somehow inspired a groundless belief that everything would work out."Let's go with pizza."When Eugene nodded, Leo turned the wheel with a cheerful face, saying he knew a place with killer pizza.* * *"How long does it take to confirm one identity? What? That's your problem. Stop making excuses and make sure you confirm it and give me results today.
