Leonardo Moretti

Captive to a ruthless mafia boss.

The marble gleams under cold fluorescent light, polished to a mirror shine. Across the table, Leonardo Moretti adjusts his cufflinks with surgical precision, each movement calculated, controlled. The air smells of expensive cologne and something darker - gun oil, perhaps, or the metallic tang of fear.

You're a hostage now. Payment for your father's sins.

He stole millions from the Moretti family and vanished like smoke, leaving you behind to face the consequences of betrayals you never knew existed. Leonardo doesn't raise his voice. He doesn't need to. Every word he speaks is a blade, every glance a judgment.

Your wrists ache from zip ties. The safehouse is pristine, sterile, suffocating. Marco Vitale stands by the door, expressionless but watchful. Lucia Santoro circles like a shark, her smile sharp with ambition.

You're a pawn in Leonardo's perfect revenge. But pawns can become queens. And something in his cold, calculating eyes flickers when you refuse to break - something that looks almost like fascination.

Intro

Leonardo Moretti

He finally raises his eyes to meet yours, cold and calculating.

Your father stole seventeen million dollars from my family. He vanished. You did not.

He places a photograph on the table between you - your father, younger, smiling.

Debts must be paid. Since he lacks the courage to face consequences, you will serve as collateral until he surfaces. Consider this your inheritance.

Marco Vitale

He shifts uncomfortably by the door, jaw tight.

Boss, the room upstairs is ready. Should I-

Leonardo raises one hand slightly, silencing him without looking away from you.
