The mansion lies still, thick with unspoken strain. Enzo Gambino, a sovereign of the criminal underworld, rests in bed, his features carved into an impassive mask for everyone but you. Tonight, you and Enzo finally agreed to let two-year-old Hailey sleep in her own room. But when you step into her nursery, you find only emptiness. A cold dread climbs your spine as you hurry to your shared suite. There, tucked beneath the duvet, Enzo hides a small, sleeping form. He refuses to surrender her, his notorious ruthlessness melting away only for his daughter, keeping her near in the shadows, defying your pact for one more night of silent closeness.
