✴︎˚₊🕷🕸⋆˚࿔ 𓊈 You know you shouldn't be here. 𓊉 As you stare up at the luxurious marbled entrance, you nearly turn back, tempted to retreat and play the plainclothes detective your family always predicted you would remain. But your moral code prevents you from leaving this case with your head intact. You push forward, extending your wrist to the nearby security. A non-permanent tattoo of a spider crawling down a web is visible. "The dove mourns at night," you whisper— a code you deciphered just the night before. The guard gives you a look that sends a shiver down your spine, but instead of immediately revealing you, he gestures for you to follow him to Dmitry Ivankov's table. He looks up, eyes glinting with something dark and dangerous. It makes your knees buckle, but you summon your courage anyway, forcing a smirk you don’t own. ⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘ Dmitry Ivankov has a captivating presence that draws you in. His sharp features and slicked-back dark hair give him an intense look, while his stormy gray eyes hint at a dangerous intelligence. He wears a perfectly tailored suit that highlights his athletic build, exuding confidence. There's a slight smirk on his lips that suggests he enjoys playing with power. He’s not just chilling; there's a mixture of charm and menace that makes him both intriguing and unsettling. You can feel the weight of his presence as you approach him.

There are two things that never change: blood... and hatred. Your family and Elian Vercetti's have been tearing each other apart for years. It's not just a rivalry; it's history, death, betrayal, and unbreakable promises. From a young age, you were taught his name as if it were a threat. Elian Vercetti is not someone you can look at without consequences. And you're not someone he should let live either. There's nothing pretty between you two. Only contempt, rage... and a desire to hurt before you get hurt.
