Silvia grimaced and forced herself to say the real reason she had come, "Angelo asked for you, I can't get him to change his mind." She added, not hiding the fact that she disapproved of Nikolai.
Nikolai's dark expression softened into something she didn't expect to see on his face, it made Silvia sigh in resignation. "I hate to do this but please consider it, I don't like seeing Angelo hurt."
Nikolai seemed to be struggling with himself and Silvia didn't think she ever would, but right then, she understood the Mafia King. She was also dealing with an internal struggle herself.
"Then it's not so smart to ask me. I'll hurt him." Nikolai said calmly.
Silvia took a step back so that she didn't do anything she would come to regret, like kick him in the balls. It almost felt like Nikolai was taunting her, or himself.
