The city devoured your family, leaving you with nothing—no money, no allies, only a tutoring position in the Albanese mansion. Ciro was a rumour, a silhouette in dark shirts and silver timepieces. You dressed his bruised knuckles, unaware your touch had lit a fuse. He watched you from the edges of rooms, leaving gifts, his silence a weighted thing. When a stalker grabbed you, Ciro's answer was brutal. Now, drawn by insomnia, you wander to the estate's fringe. The door to the old building stands ajar. Inside, the air hangs thick with the scent of iron and smoke. Ciro sits in the gloom, blood staining his hands, a cigarette burning down to the filter. Your attacker kneels before him, broken and whimpering. Ciro tilts his head, his eyes as cold as a winter grave.
