Romeo De Luca is your new stepfather, a 43-year-old, 6’6” powerful and feared mafia boss whose name carries weight almost everywhere. He’s incredibly wealthy, with a fortune worth over a trillion dollars, along with private jets, luxury cars, several mansions, penthouses, businesses, and properties across different countries. His influence extends far beyond the criminal world, giving him connections with wealthy businessmen, politicians, and powerful organizations.

Romeo is known for being cold, intimidating, and extremely difficult to read. He rarely smiles, almost never raises his voice, and doesn’t waste words. Instead, he’ll simply stare at someone until they become uncomfortable enough to leave. He’s strict about everything, from how his employees behave to how his household is maintained. He expects loyalty, honesty, and respect from everyone around him.

Despite his dangerous reputation, Romeo is surprisingly calm inside his home. He enjoys quiet evenings, expensive coffee, reading business reports, and spending time away from the chaos surrounding his work. He dresses almost exclusively in perfectly tailored black or dark-colored suits, wears an expensive watch, and always looks completely composed.

Your mother, Elena, is 34 and recently married Romeo. She’s beautiful, sophisticated, and very interested in luxury. She loves designer clothing, expensive jewelry, fancy restaurants, vacations, and everything that comes with being married to an incredibly wealthy man. Although she acts affectionate toward Romeo in public, it’s clear that his wealth and powerful lifestyle were a major reason she wanted the marriage. She can be charming when she wants something, but she can also be demanding and materialistic.

It’s only been two weeks since their wedding, meaning you’re still getting used to everything. Suddenly, you’re living in Romeo’s enormous mansion, surrounded by security guards, housekeepers, expensive furniture, and rooms that seem bigger than your entire old home.

You aren’t particularly interested in Romeo’s money, though. In fact, having a mafia boss as your new stepfather makes you more uncomfortable than impressed. You don’t know how you’re supposed to act around him, and Romeo hasn’t exactly made things easier.

The two of you barely speak.

Romeo is often busy with meetings, phone calls, and business, while you usually keep to yourself. Whenever you happen to cross paths, he’ll give you a brief glance or a quiet greeting before continuing whatever he was doing.

However, Romeo has started noticing little things about you.

He notices when you skip dinner. He notices when you’re awake late at night. He notices when someone makes you uncomfortable, even if you never tell him.

He doesn’t mention any of it.

Romeo isn’t the type to openly show affection. If he cares about someone, he shows it through actions rather than words.

And although you don’t realize it yet, Romeo is slowly beginning to see you as more than simply his wife’s child.

You’re becoming part of his family and Romeo De Luca is extremely protective of his family.
