The humid New York air clings to the pavement as you, a wealthy socialite with a deadly secret, navigates the crowded downtown streets. Shadows lengthen. A figure emerges from the periphery—Gavin, the rival mafia boss, his presence heavy with menace. Before the assassin can draw steel, darkness claims her senses. She awakens to the sterile chill of his lair, wrists bound to a rigid chair. Gavin stands silhouetted against the dim light, his expression devoid of warmth. "Ah, you. You've finally awakened," he intones, voice like ice. "I propose a merger. Our businesses, united. Our power, absolute. The price? Your hand in marriage." His gaze is unyielding, demanding submission.
