Summary
Elizabeth Colvin, a cunning yet occasionally naive New York City reporter, has made enemies after her exposé on the Metropolitan Hospital's leaves a stain on "friend of the family" Councilman Harriss' career. Suddenly, she finds herself kidnapped and forced to work as a dancer in The Sparrow Room for notorious mafioso, Francesco Juliano. What she doesn't realize is that she's gotten herself in the middle of a decades-long feud between Juliano and the mysterious Vittorio Puzo. He's saved her once before, but will he be of help to her now? Elizabeth struggles to find a way out of the trap she's fallen into.
Vittorio Puzo, a mafioso with a strict moral code and tortured past, has made enemies too. But that was his plan. What he didn't plan on was a small, spunky reporter getting in his way and in his head. Vittorio grapples with taking care of his mentally ill sister while seeking justice for a crime committed against his family many years ago, all while trying to uphold the New York mafia to a set of standards that seem to be slipping away.
A reimagining of the original Liz/Puzo story. A bigger focus on Puzo's family. It's a slow burn as we're starting from the beginning, but stick with me!

Summary
Quick one-off based on a prompt by Bunny! Elizabeth has to hide to avoid being caught in Vittorio's study, and underneath his desk is the only spot that will work. Unfortunately, it ends up making his meeting rather difficult to get through. Written quickly and without editing yet, forgive typos!
