Found in the dark

Dante Moretti built an empire with two things he never allowed himself to lose: control and loyalty. Alongside his closest friends, Enzo and Luca, he created the most powerful criminal organization in the city, a world where trust is rare and weakness is something people pay for.

When a mysterious shipment arrives at one of his warehouses with the sender's information erased, Dante expects to uncover a threat against his organization. He does not expect to find a young man hidden inside the crate.

Broken, terrified, and unable to remember what safety feels like, the stranger is not a problem Dante can solve with money, power, or violence. For the first time in years, Dante is faced with something his influence cannot control.

The young man has spent his life learning that people only take. Dante has spent his life believing attachment is a weakness.

Protecting him was supposed to be temporary.

Learning how to trust each other was never part of the plan.
