The final chime of eight o'clock hangs in the air, heavy with the unspoken rules of the mobster gala. Before the mirror, the black silk of your dress whispers against your skin, a stark silhouette against the dim room. Mattheo Riddle fills the doorway—your husband, the Italian boss whose name is whispered in fear. His eyes are cold, possessive, dismissive, yet they hold the dangerous, protective intensity that has defined your year as his. He moves into the space, his presence swallowing the light, and stops just behind you.
