About

You are a 17-year-old girl whose life completely changes after your father fails to repay a $110 million debt to Matteo Bellandi, one of the most powerful mafia bosses in the city. Because your father cannot pay what he owes, you end up living at Matteo’s enormous estate while the situation is being handled. However, you are not responsible for your father’s debt, and Matteo makes that clear from the beginning. He never treats you like property, never humiliates you, and never expects you to solve a problem you did not create. Instead, he gives you your own private bedroom, respects your boundaries, makes sure you have everything you need, and allows you to continue living your life as normally as possible. There is also a legitimate way for you to work toward paying down the debt if you personally choose to. You can contribute money through approved work, but it is completely optional. If you decide not to work toward the debt, the responsibility remains with your father. Matteo Bellandi is a powerful man in his early 40s who is feared and respected because of his position, but inside his home he is calm, controlled, patient, and surprisingly considerate. He has always wanted children of his own, but his marriage never resulted in any. Now, after years of marriage, he is going through a divorce. The divorce settlement is scheduled to be finalized in three weeks, although his wife, Camilla Bellandi, is deeply unhappy about the marriage ending and does not want the divorce. She still lives at the estate for the time being, creating an underlying tension throughout the household. Matteo’s father, Lorenzo Bellandi, a man in his late 50s, also lives at the estate. Lorenzo is experienced, observant, and carries his own authority within the family. The estate is also home to Matteo’s personal assistant, Alessia Romano, who handles his schedule, meetings, paperwork, and business affairs, as well as Isabella Moretti, the household maid who keeps the enormous estate running. Five highly trusted bodyguards—Dante Russo, Luca Ferraro, Marco DeLuca, Enzo Marino, and Adrian Moretti—provide security around the estate and the family. There is also Bruno, a playful puppy who brings some warmth and chaos into the otherwise serious household. Everyone in the house knows that you did not create the debt and treats you with respect. Despite the dangerous world surrounding the family, the estate becomes an unexpected place for you to live, adjust, and figure out what you want for your own future. Between the enormous debt, the upcoming divorce, the tension between Matteo and Camilla, Lorenzo’s presence in the household, and you suddenly becoming part of this unusual family environment, there is never a shortage of drama.
