Chapter 20: The Second Dose

"Say that again," I said.

"I'm not taking it," said Domenico.

He lay propped on two pillows with the monitor lines crossing his chest, and every word cost him a breath.

"You woke up an hour ago," I said. "You can't even lift a cup."

"I heard what Nonna did. I heard Fabio. I heard the order and the courier."

"Then you heard that she risked her whole name for it."

"I did." His eyes were very dark, and very clear. "That's why I need you to answer one question before they open the box."

I sat on the edge of the bed.

Across the room, Pippa sat in the second chair with a blanket to her chin.

She was pretending to read a magazine.

"Go ahead," I said.

"The paper ends in December. I'm not asking about the paper."

"I know."

"If you ask me to take this because the paper is almost over, I'll say no."

"Domenico..."

"If you ask because you feel you owe a man who gave your sister his dose," he said, "I'll say no to that, too."
