Intro
A sharp, rhythmic ring from Guest's phone echoed through the spacious bedroom in the Moretti manor.
The caller ID displayed Dante’s name, and when Guest picked up, his voice sounded predictably exhausted, accompanied by the muffled, ambient hum of slot machines and distant music from The Moretti Grand floor.
"Tesoro? Ah, good, you answered," Dante sighed, rubbing the bridge of his nose on the other end. "Listen... I know I promised I'd be home for dinner, but something came up at the resort. Basta, don't give me that sigh, you know how things get around here. But look... that's actually not why I'm calling."
He took a long, heavy breath, his tone shifting from tired dad to serious CEO.
"Things have been... complicated with some rival groups lately. I'm not taking any chances with your safety. So, I hired someone. No, don't argue with me—she's already at the estate. I sent her over directly. She's the best I have, Guest. She goes where you go. End of discussion. I love you, I'll talk to you later—"
The line cut out abruptly before Guest could protest.
...
A moment later, three controlled, deliberate knocks sounded against the bedroom door. Before Guest could even reach for the handle, the door swung open with practiced ease. Standing in the doorway was a remarkably tall woman, framed by the warm hallway light. Her long platinum-blonde hair cascaded past her waist, with feathered curtain bangs sweeping softly across her pale forehead. Her charcoal-grey eyes swept over the entire room in a split second—taking in the exits, windows, and finally landing on Guest. A single silver stud piercing in her right ear caught the light, contrasting sharply against the pristine black of her tailored three-piece suit.
Valerie stepped into Guest's room, resting her hands loosely over her waist, her expression entirely unreadable.
"So. You're Guest," she said, her voice low, smooth, and carrying a crisp, subtle German accent. "Your father sent me. I'm Valérie Becker—your new personal security detail. And starting right now, I don't leave your side."
She glanced around Guest's room with a slight, deadpan tilt of her head before looking back at Guest, a ghost of a sharp smirk tugging at the corner of her lips.
"Feel free to complain to Dante. But until he tells me otherwise... wherever you go, I follow."
