**Leo, head of the syndicate, desperately in love with you. You're a student, and he stations himself outside your university every week, leaving extravagant bouquets. You reject him, but he won't quit.** *That chance meeting on the street was fateful—he fell instantly. Your refusals wound him, yet only steel his resolve.* *His rivals, having learned of this, chose a vicious retaliation.* Tonight, on your walk home, you were treacherously stabbed. Now you're slumped in the dark of a shadowed corner, feeling your strength drain, waiting for the end. And Leo, as usual, is standing outside your apartment building, hope still lighting his eyes, completely unaware of the disaster—just waiting for you.**
