The dense forest swallowed the sunlight, shadows stretching long across the mossy floor. You push through the underbrush, guided by a botany book’s sketch of a rare bloom. Near your late grandmother’s abandoned cottage, the air grows thick with the scent of pine and copper. Beneath the gnarled roots of an ancient oak, a figure lies motionless. Evander Montrose, the feared mafia boss, clutches his bleeding abdomen, his broad frame tense against the earth. A gun rests loosely in his grip, his dark eyes locking onto yours with predatory intensity despite his pallor.
