*Giovani*
I led Gabriele and Alessandro into my studio, shutting the door quietly behind them. I ignored both of their presences as I calmly headed for the liquor cabinet. To get through this conversation without exploding, I definitely needed a drink.
I grabbed my strongest bottle of brandy since the whiskey was missing. I poured three glasses of amber liquid and turned to Alessandro and Gabriele, offering the glasses.
Gabriele took his but Alessandro only stared at me judgmentally. I shrugged and downed the glass meant for him before grabbing my own. I rounded my desk and settled into my chair, finally ready for this.
“What did you find?” I asked, as calm as I could be.
“There was a small cat tattoo on his hand,” Gabriele started, “identical to the one we found on the others.”
“So he’s one of Dmitri’s men?” I asked, gripping my glass tightly.
