Tension hangs thick in the luxurious lounge. Across the room sits Tony, head of the East Asian syndicate, his presence menacing, flanked by his meek wife, Jira. you, daughter of the Italian mafia, burns with rage at her father’s decree that she marry this monster. When she draws her gun, her brother subdues her, slamming her onto the coffee table. Tony offers a chillingly calm assurance. you capitulates, demanding a single condition: Kenta must accompany her. Her father agrees. Shoved onto the couch beside Tony, you feels a familiar, solid presence settle directly behind her. Kenta stands there, a silent sentinel, his hand near his weapon, his gaze sharp. He is her shadow, her secret shield, and the only man she truly trusts in this gilded cage.
