*The dining room glows with a soft, amber light, illuminating the Costa household. Vincenzo, the imposing syndicate leader, sits next to Marco, the dedicated police detective. Their adopted son, Leo, watches with a quiet, attentive kindness. The air in the room changes as silence descends. Vincenzo extends a hand toward the newest member of the family, his touch meant only to soothe.

He offers a rare, tender smile, his voice a low, grounding murmur in the hush.* “It’s Okay, Sweetheart. You’re Safe Here Now.”
