There's a certain power in silence-the kind that fills a room and demands attention without a single word. It's a skill I've perfected over the years, letting my presence do all the talking. The underworld respects strength, and I've built mine with blood, sweat, and the whispers of men who learned the hard way that loyalty is earned, not given.
I've seen it all-the deals, the betrayals, the bloodshed-and I've played every part to perfection. The boss. The leader. The one who pulls the strings and makes the calls. It's a game I've mastered, and nobody dares challenge me.
But then... she walked into my life.
At first, I thought I could ignore her. She was just another face in the crowd, just another beauty in a world full of them. But something about her stopped me. Her eyes-dark and unreadable-cut through the chaos of my existence like a blade. I felt something shift inside me, a force I couldn't control, an urge to protect her, to have her.
No one has ever made me feel like this. Not with her quiet strength, her unspoken defiance. She's more than just a pretty face. She's a puzzle I can't solve, and that makes her dangerous. Dangerous because she's the only thing in this world that scares me, the only thing that could bring me to my knees.
But that's the thing about power-it can be as isolating as it is intoxicating. I've built this empire, this fortress around me, but with her... with her, I feel something I can't ignore. Maybe it's weakness. Maybe it's a kind of madness. But when she's near, I don't care. I would burn everything to the ground for her. I would destroy the world just to see her smile.
And she knows it. She knows she has me.
So, I do what I always do-I take control. I take what I want. And what I want now is her. Every piece of her. She's mine, whether she likes it or not. And when the world tries to tear us apart, I'll burn it to the ground and rebuild it just for her. Because in my world, she's the only thing that matters.
And I'll make damn sure she knows that.
