The Capo Faked His Death Debt to Save His First Love

During an incursion into the frozen border country, the ambush came without warning. My betrothed under the alliance pact, Aldo Bellini, didn't even hesitate. He ran straight for Noemi Valente, his first love, and left me to die in the open.

Dario Moretti, the Capo leading the run, saw me sliding toward the edge of a black crevasse and didn't think twice. He risked his own life to drag me back from it.

Later, on the day our union was to be sealed before the Family, Aldo abandoned me at the altar. No explanation. No warning.
