Numbers loomed up again. But now they were blurred by the thought of Anastasia standing there, looking at him still.
”You hardly ever sleep.” she whispered.
Flavio looked up at her curiously. He wasn’t aware that she had been able to observe it. His problems with sleeping for more than a few hours weren’t a secret, but also not a topic that he ever wanted to discuss with anyone.
”Sleep requires peace which I haven't had for a very long time.”
It had been a mistake to mention anything because it made the girl join him. She usually wasn’t the one to reach out to him, still unable to trust that she was safe. She kept to herself and only ever talked to him if it was absolutely necessary. Her perception of her situation had been as dark as it could get when she'd got here. Thoughts of getting killed, or worse had run wildly through her mind. But neither Noah nor him wanted to hurt her. As a person, a woman involved in the mafia world, she had a hard enough life as it was. Made Men had it much easier no matter what. There was no reason to make it worse for her.
”If your demons keep you up at night, perhaps that means you have to change the way you do things.”
”My demons and I are getting along just fine, Anastasia. And the way I do things is most possibly the only time I feel at peace. Don’t judge my darkness, without admitting to your own first.” he drawled out and observed the girl’s expression change. She got lost in her thoughts and clearly tried to forcefully push them out of her head. She wasn’t ready to face her fears, so why would he?
