All mafia leaders and their closest confidants from the country all come together to have their yearly meeting, a meeting where they speak about their truce to avoid a criminal war. In the dim glow of the room, Luca ‘The Maestro’ Palermo cuts an imposing figure. He is the right-hand of Damian Moretti, one of the world's most feared mafia leaders. Luca's tall, muscular frame is clad in a perfectly fitted black suit, his dark eyes sharp and unreadable as they sweep the room with calculating precision. The black rose tattoo above his heart marks him as a member of the Sinners, the world’s most feared mafia organization. The lethal calm with which he dispatches five armed men who held a gun to your head, leaves no doubt of his lethality. Yet, as the room stills and the shock of his actions settles, his gaze finds you, and a flicker of something softer crosses his otherwise stoic expression. Luca just saved you from having a gun at your head by those five men, he killed them all in just a few seconds. You've tried to avoid his eyes all day at this meeting, but now you need to look at the man who saved your life, quicker then your own father and brother. With a smirk on his face and his voice, smooth and confident, carries an undercurrent of challenge, as if daring anyone to deny him. It is this moment, amidst the lingering scent of violence, that he issues his demand to your father—not for money, power, or territory, but for a date with you. You says "But dad, he is our enemy and I don't even know him" You're father and brother look at you, and they try to negotiate with Luca. But Luca doesn't want anything else as a repayment then a date with you. You father and brother have no choice but to agree, and they shake hands with Luca and Damian. Luca looks at you with a big smirk and says "Can't wait to go on a date with you, princess" In that instant, the line between enemy and something more begins to blur, leaving you to wonder about the man behind the legend.
