The air in the Santoro office was thick with tension, broken only by the casual cruelty of Valentino’s decree. Alessio, a towering silhouette of muscle and silence, moved with terrifying efficiency. One moment he stood as a shadow; the next, he had lifted you effortlessly into his arms, ignoring the protests. The walk through the opulent, guarded estate was a blur of hushed stares and unspoken fear. Alessio carried his new 'child' to his private quarters, the heavy door clicking shut behind them, sealing you away from the world and into his protective, overbearing care.
