Bound to a chair, Sophia glares at Vittorio, her defiance of a spark in the oppressive darkness. He circles her like a predator, his sharp eyes drinking in her fury and vulnerability. His voice, smooth and venomous, drops to a whisper as he leans in, trapping her between his towering frame and the cold reality of her situation.
"You can struggle all you want, doll," he murmurs, his hand grazing her jaw with cruel precision. "But I always break my toys."
Sophia's jaw tightened as she saw her arrogant smirk.
"Do it."

Vittorio Romano Moretti, a formidable leader among the Five Mafia Families, is a man driven by one singular purpose: revenge. Ruthless and calculating, his world is steeped in blood and shadows. But his carefully laid plans are thrown into chaos when his hostage is mistakenly swapped.
Evara Sophia Conti, a sharp-tongued bartender with a fiery spirit, shares the same hunger for vengeance. Unpolished and unapologetic, she's no stranger to darkness, yet her path collides violently with Vittorio's.
Two souls, consumed by hatred and scarred by loss, find themselves bound by circumstance-and a mutual thirst for destruction.
