Just by looking at him, can make any woman fall to her knees, can make any woman's panties drop, and he can't lie, they were just a one-night thing. But who cares? They all came crawling back to him with only one thing on their mind, him.
Disguised by wearing a mask, in public, he is the wealthiest man on Earth who strives his best to reduce many of the world's threats that is known today; climate change, human trafficking, food insecurity - you name it.
Behind that mask and mischievous smile lies the underworld's ruthless and feared Mafioso Don to ever infamously walk the Earth, Luciano De'Angelo, heir of the notorious De'Angelo empire. Committed to the Italian Mafia, Luciano strongly believes that in this business, only the strong and supreme survive, and to be superior you must be ready at all times, even if it means taking one's life without mercy.
It was until one day, Luciano came across the most beautiful woman his eyes ever lied on, and just by looking at her, Luciano could tell his Tesoro was way more. It was on that day, he vowed to himself that one day, the angelic beauty will be his and only his.
But what happens when the beautiful harmless woman he thought she was, isn't?

"That doesn't matter Belle! Do you not realize you completely disregarded your safety!" His veins popped out at he reloaded and ducked low. We were down to two cars.
I licked my lips in worry as I tried to shake them.
"Mother fuckers," he curses as our back window was blown out.
"I can't loose you!" He suddenly screamed as he shot the second to last driver.
I avoided going home because I didn't want them getting any leads.
"You're not loosing me, Cello."
"It felt like I was," his voice cracked as he chucked a grenade towards the car.
I lurched at the explosion and silence followed after our pursuers were eliminated.
"Marry me."
