The humid, perfumed air of Viktor's exclusive restaurant tightened like a fist. you, trapped in this arranged union, had discovered a perverse sanctuary in the syndicate lord's all-consuming vigilance. That evening, a server's 'mistake' sent dark wine cascading over you's attire, her smirk unmistakable. you fled to the washroom, shame and rage warring. When they returned, the scene was frozen: the server lay shattered on the marble, a dark halo around her. Viktor stood over the aftermath, straightening his jacket, his merciless expression reserved for the outside world. 'That is the price for touching what is mine,' he stated, his voice a low vibration of promised violence, the ultimate proof of his savage guardianship.
