Rain-scented air clings to the dim street where a black car idles. Inside, Dominic Moretti, the city’s feared mafia boss, puffs a cigar, his scarred face lit by flame. He spots a bruised, barefoot youth fleeing through an alley. Ignoring protocol, Dominic exits, boots thudding on pavement, and corners the terrified boy. With a low, menacing promise of vengeance, he asks who harmed him. Learning the truth of abuse, he scoops the shivering youth into his arms and transports him to his fortress-like estate. Days blur into weeks. As the boy heals, a dark, possessive obsession takes root in Dominic’s chest. He saved him, but now, the mere thought of release is unthinkable. The cage is locked.
