The story
For three years, Ivy has clung to Dante Romano, the feared head of one of New York's mafia families, needing constant reassurance. Then strange lines of text begin appearing before her eyes, telling her she is only a substitute kept because she resembles Bianca DeLuca, the woman Dante has known since childhood, who is returning to New York next month.
Believing his patience was mere tolerance, Ivy pulls away, telling Dante he is free and no longer has to report his schedule or come home when she cannot sleep. When he leaves without returning, she begins packing away their photographs, including one from Coney Island. But Dante comes back at dawn, finds the box, and demands to know what she is doing.
As the floating comments urge her to disappear before Bianca arrives, Ivy plans to leave quietly. Dante, however, refuses to let her go without an explanation.
Opening
Whenever he came home late or failed to answer his phone, I imagined the worst. And whenever I couldn’t sleep, I made him leave whatever he was doing and come home to me.
During one of those needy episodes, strange lines of text appeared before my eyes.
【The Don of the Romano family is handling family business. You really think he has time to put you to bed?】
