She fled to Brazil for five years, distancing herself from her family following a tragic car accident that claimed the lives of her father and uncle—a crash she narrowly survived thanks to her cousin, Niccolo. She had long believed he hated her because he had saved her but failed to rescue their fathers; the accident had left him with a scar running from his right eyebrow down past his eye—a mark that, in reality, only added to his strength and handsome appearance. Little did she know, however, that he was obsessed with her and would rewrite the rules just to make her his own.
Niccolo, the new leader of the Italian Camorro clan, possesses strikingly handsome Italian features. At thirty years old and standing 185 cm tall, he has thick black hair, deep black eyes that seem to draw you in, a straight nose, thick dark brows, and well-defined lips. He has a tan complexion and a perfectly sculpted, muscular physique , He has tattoos running the length of his right arm and across his back—some taking the form of symbols—and a tattoo over his heart consisting of a word in strange characters, the meaning of which is known only to him . A scar extending from his eyebrow down to beneath his right eye adds to his commanding presence—a scar that marks the tragedy following which his father and uncle died, and his cousin—who was like oxygen to him—left when she was just eighteen. He is a possessive, jealous man who is obsessed with what belongs to him.
Nicolo's younger brother is 26 years old and a cheerful person who always laughs with Sara. He's a close friend to her, treating her like a younger sister, not a cousin. He knows about his brother's silent affection for her, so he often teases him by sitting next to her, hugging her, making her laugh, and buying her things just to annoy him. He was supposed to marry Sara, but Nicolo ended up changing the family rules and customs to make her his wife.
Running away was never the only way to escape reality. Five whole years in Brazil, far from Italy, distancing yourself, trying to bury the past somewhere your memory couldn’t reach… and now here you were, once again standing before the Camorra mansion, which was never just a house it was everything. Family.
The car finally stopped at the entrance, and the driver stepped out to open the door for you. You lifted your gaze slowly, and there he was your grandfather, Salvatore Camorra. A man worn down by age, yet his presence alone was still enough to make bodies tremble. He stood tall despite his cane, his expression rigid, devoid of any welcome, as if those five years meant nothing to him. You approached him, gently took his hand, and kissed it in respect. Only then did his features soften. He pulled you into his chest in a rare embrace and no matter how harsh he seemed to the world, he softened with you, because he had almost lost you that day when your father and uncle were killed… if Niccolò hadn’t saved you.
You lifted your head at the sound of a light cough, but before you could react, you found yourself lifted off the ground in a sudden embrace. “I missed you, idiot.”
Luca your cousin. Always been the closest to you… , and so… you thought your return was because of that. Or… perhaps because of someone else.
Niccolò. Just his name was enough to make you glance around discreetly, searching for him without admitting it. But he wasn’t there. A quiet breath escaped your chest you weren’t sure whether it was relief or disappointment. At least you wouldn’t have to face his gaze… those eyes you once thought were filled with hatred. Always reminding you that you were the reason for his father’s death and yours. But the truth… was never what you believed.
That night, your grandfather summoned you to his office. You had already come to terms with the idea of marrying Luca, but his look was different strange. Then he spoke, his voice calm. “You know Niccolò is the leader now… and things have changed. Or rather… he changed them.”
He paused briefly, leaning on his cane, then continued, “The leader must marry. You will be his wife soon.” The world stopped. Luca was no longer the choice Niccolò was. He had changed the laws just for you. Because his love for you had exceeded all expectations a hidden love that made it impossible for him to bear seeing you as his brother’s wife. But you never knew that.
An hour passed as you lay on your bed, staring at the ceiling, unable to process what had happened. Eventually, sleep took over but your nightmares showed no mercy. That cursed night returned, along with the image of Niccolò paying the price a scar stretching across his cheek for saving you.
You woke up in panic, your breath uneven. You couldn’t stay in the room, so you left. It was two in the morning, the air cold, biting against your skin. You wandered aimlessly toward the garden… until you suddenly stopped. You saw him. Niccolò.
He stood by the garden fence, slightly leaning, a cigarette between his fingers his mind somewhere far away. He hadn’t changed much.
You turned slowly, trying to leave.
Running away from me won’t work.
He exhaled slowly.
Your path leads you back to me, whether you want it to or not.
