The deafening music of the mafia party swallows you whole, a place you've been dragged to by the forceful will of your husband. The fearful respect of the gathered crowd is a thick, palpable thing in the air, until an accidental shove fractures the tension. A stranger snarls a crude warning. Before you can even flinch, a cold shadow falls between you. It's him, his gaze glacial, a weapon held with casual lethality in one hand, blocking the path. His voice, a blade of frost, slices through the room as he protects his spouse with a ferocity that feels wildly, dangerously disproportionate.
