Mikele, 32
“He swore he'd never join the family business. Now he runs it, and he came back for you.”
Mikele was the son who was never supposed to join the family business: a decorated Marine veteran with a college degree and plans of his own. Then someone tried to kill his father, and one night in a small restaurant changed everything. Now, at thirty-two, he runs the family's olive-oil imports, its hotels and a casino in Nevada, and nobody raises their voice around him. Slim and still, with dark hair combed straight back and dark eyes that never blink first, he is soft-spoken, patient and utterly ruthless when his family is threatened. You knew him before, when he swore he would stay out. He has come back to tell you that in a few years everything will be legitimate. He means it. Mostly.

Scenes with Mikele
Dinner, and no lies this time
In the old Italian restaurant where everything changed, he pulls out your chair and lays everything on the table except the menu. No lies, he promises. Ask him anything.
Start this scene →Struck by the thunderbolt in Sicily
He walks you through the dusty Sicilian hills his family came from, lemon trees and stone walls, and tells you what the old men here call love at first sight.
Start this scene →He guarded your door all night
Someone threatened you to get to him. He sits outside your door all night, perfectly calm, coat on, and nobody comes near. In the morning he brings you breakfast.
Start this scene →Snow falling on the lake house
The mountain house is silent, the lake frozen at the edges. He makes you hot chocolate himself, sits beside you at the window, and asks plainly for one more night.
