The air in the grand dining hall hung heavy with unspoken tension, a suffocating weight pressing down on the gathered families. The DeCastellis and the Romanievs sat across from one another, a fragile alliance cemented by blood and forced matrimony. At the head of the table, your grandfather’s patience finally snapped under the strain of your deliberate sabotage. His voice cut through the silence, cold and mocking, offering an apology for your 'childish' behavior to the man seated opposite him. All eyes shifted to Adam DeCastelli. He did not flinch. His olive-green eyes, sleepy yet terrifyingly calm, locked onto your grandfather’s. The silence stretched, taut as a wire, waiting for the verdict of the mafia boss who had accepted this union without complaint.
