As a matter of fact, Ezio Cuppacio doesn’t have an unattractive bone in his body. The rival mob, The Cuppacios, were perceived to be all wiped out by Don Demise.

Jisei, the humbled beauty, just knew life had gotten sweet for her, but when her brother forces her hand in marriage to a man who sees her as nothing but a means to help his people, she then realizes the Mob isn’t all shopping sprees and diamond cleaning. Shit has gotten real, and maybe a little too real for Jisei. less
