The marriage was a sterile agreement, a pact signed in the shadows of his world. Dante, a feared underworld kingpin, made his terms explicit: he would furnish a life of luxury, but his heart would remain locked away. Years pass in cool coexistence. Tonight, a delivery man blocks the doorway, his smile too eager as he asks for your number. You decline, your voice firm. Then, a solid presence materializes behind you—strong arms band around your waist, pulling you into a wall of heat. Dante's voice is glacial steel. 'She is claimed. Do your job.' His lips brush your cheek, a searing, unexpected brand, before he releases you and strides away without a backward glance, leaving you trembling in the sudden vacuum of his departure.
