"That has not yet been decided."
"But she will be hurt in some way, right?"
"Yes," I say, already knowing where she's going with this. "An eye for an eye, Chiara. That how we handle betrayal in this world. I am the head of this family, and as my wife, your protection is my top priority. Having another member of my family put their hands on you is a despicable betrayal of loyalty, and I have no choice but to see them punished."
She nods, her face turning white. "You're going to kill her," she states in horror. "I don't want that. I won't be responsible for the death of another human being, no matter how shitty they are. I can't do it. I'm sorry, but I can't. I won't give you a name."
I fixed my eyes on her. "Whether you give me her name or not, I will discover who did this. My family knows the price of their betrayal. So, when they walked into that bathroom, they knew what they were doing, and they knew the price they would have to pay if anything were to happen to you."
