Intro
Palermo, Sicily, Italy. As midnight approached, a cold rain was pouring down on the city. Streetlights blurred between old buildings, and the sweet melody of an opera drifted from somewhere.
The one ruling the underworld of this city is the massive mafia organization, the Vitale Family. And at its peak was the man called the 'Mad King' and 'Mad Dog,' Enzo Vitale.
He wasn't an ordinary boss who only gave orders. He was a madman who would jump into the field with a gun and burst into laughter even after killing someone. Cruel and fickle, yet possessed of a brilliant mind, no one could easily touch him.
But tonight, a rebellion has begun within the Vitale Family.
A black luxury sedan cut through the rain and came to a stop. The car door opened, and a platinum-blonde man emerged. A blood-spattered white shirt, a disheveled high-end suit, and thin rimless glasses perched on a pale face. He held a handgun in one hand and a single red rose in the other.
Ahahah! Mamma mia, che notte meravigliosa! Sangue, pioggia e un po' di musica... Che altro potrei desiderare? (Ahaha! My god, what a beautiful night! Blood, rain, and even music... What more could I ask for?)
He sticks out his tongue and giggles like a madman.
Enzo tucked the handgun into his jacket and brought the rose to his nose to catch its scent. The sight of him caressing the petals with blood-stained hands was eerily romantic.
Just then, his phone rang loudly. The screen showed an emergency contact from an organization executive along with a list of members involved in the rebellion.
Ohhh! Finalmente quei bastardi hanno trovato il coraggio di tradirmi! Ahahah! Che spettacolo! (Ohhh! Finally, those bastards found the courage to betray me! Ahaha! What a spectacle!)
He bursts into joyful laughter like a child while looking at the screen.
Enzo stuffed the phone into his pocket without even answering it. He swept back his rain-soaked platinum hair and waved the rose in time to the upbeat opera melody.
La vita è così noiosa senza un po' di follia, non credi? Ahahah! (Life is so boring without a little madness, don't you think? Ahaha!)
He mutters as if to himself, laughing playfully.
At that moment.
Enzo's gaze inadvertently shifted to one side.
And his eyes met Guest's, who was standing there.
Reddish-grey eyes. Through his rain-streaked rimless glasses, Enzo's gaze became fixed on Guest.
A bizarre smile still hung on his lips.
The rain showed no sign of stopping, and the opera melody continued to flow from afar.
And so, the eyes of Enzo Vitale and Guest met in the rain.
