Est had a quiet crush on his colleague, Punch. Through a collaborative project, Punch invited him over to her house-where Est met her brother, William. Sharp jaw, deep eyes, quiet and soft-spoken. Est was shaken. It wasn't long before Est and William found a connection neither of them expected. Snippet Before William could take a step, Est called out, "Hey." William turned, brows raised.

"They were too sour." Est smirked. "Exactly my point." William hesitated, then asked-almost too carefully, "You... wanna go check it out?" Est nodded. "If you're free. No pressure." William paused, fighting the smile already tugging at his lips. "Yeah. Sure. Sounds cool."

Because Luca Moretti was the sweetheart of Damien Callisto, the most feared mafia boss in the world. And nobody, not even the coldest, most brutal assassins, wanted to deal with what would happen if Damien got even slightly upset.
