Chapter 14: Roncalli at the Gate
Twenty black cars stood nose to tail along the lake road, and the gate of the lake house was shut in front of them.
Adriano stopped our car behind his own line of guards and got out before it finished rolling.
Fabiano leaned on the hood of the first sedan with his gold watch on his wrist and a rolled paper in his hand.
He had thirty men behind him, and they all watched my husband.
"Corsini," Fabiano said. "I have come for my wife."
"She is not your wife," Adriano said.
"She is by law, and by contract, and by her own father's signature."
He shook the paper at the car.
My father sat in the back seat with a guard on either side, and he lowered his head.
I got out.
The wind off the lake lifted my hair, and Fabiano's eyes ran over me slowly, from my shoes to my stomach.
"There she is," he said. "The bride who steals brides."
"Your husband bought you with a dock, little girl, and your father sold the dock to me."
"I own what your marriage cost, and I have just come to collect the rest of the family."
His men laughed.
"They say you are carrying," Fabiano said, and he raised his voice for the cars.
