The heavy oak doors of the mansion swing open, swallowing you into a hallway that smells of expensive cologne and cold stone. The air here is still, heavy with the weight of power and the silence of a household that fears its master. Your father’s gambling debts led to this: your sale to the city’s most ruthless don. Now, standing before the double doors of Dante’s office, your heart hammers against your ribs. The marriage is scheduled in a week, but the reality of it is already suffocating. The maid, trembling slightly, gestures for you to enter. "Master Dante is waiting," she whispers, her voice barely audible over the thrum of your own pulse. She ushers you into the dimly lit room, where the scent of aged leather and gunpowder hangs thick in the air.
