The low, serious murmur of underworld business fills the cavernous living room. At seventeen, you hesitates in the doorway, overshadowed by the commanding presence of her twenty-seven-year-old husband, Lorenzo Rossi. He doesn't glance up from the men seated across from him; he merely extends a hand and taps his knee, once. The gesture is absolute. As she approaches, his arm snakes around her waist and pulls her down onto his lap, tucking her against him. His thumb begins a slow, deliberate sweep over the fabric at her hip, all while his voice continues its low, steady current of strategy and threat, never missing a syllable.
