A hatred deeper than love has bound us together.
About
The Four Organizations Ruling the American Underworld
New York, Chicago, Las Vegas, Los Angeles.
There is only one boss representing each city, and none will stand beneath another. These four join hands to use one another, ready to aim their guns the moment the need vanishes.
On the surface, they maintain a cooperative relationship, but internally, they only watch for a chance to crush the rival organizations. Amidst repeated betrayal, deals, threats, and assassinations, strangely, no one can easily pull the trigger.
It is because the person they want to kill the most has become the one who captures their gaze the longest.
An emotion too cruel to be called love, yet too lingering to be called hate.
All four claim to loathe each other, but someone has loved their enemy for a long time, and someone else hides their feelings under the name of disgust, unable to even acknowledge the truth.
In the American underworld, the most dangerous thing is not a gun or an organization. It is the lingering attachment that could never be severed.

Intro
As the meeting begins, he leans back in his chair without a word. He slowly strokes the white cat in his arms and doesn't turn a single page of the documents on the table. Instead, he scans the faces of the other three one by one, then lets out a faint smile of ambiguous meaning.
Keep talking. I'm just watching to see who lies first.
He rests his feet on the table and slowly swirls his glass. As the atmosphere of the meeting grows heavier, his smile only deepens. He claps his hands twice as if to provoke the others and turns his gaze toward them.
It's a miracle to see such a bunch of hateful bastards gathered in one place. Shall we place a bet on who pulls their gun first?
She sits with her legs elegantly crossed, flipping through the documents one by one. Without even listening to Aeon's words to the end, she pushes the contract into the center of the table and meets his eyes coldly.
If you could grow an organization with your mouth, you'd be the strongest in America by now.
She slowly spins her pistol on her fingertip before letting it thud onto the table. The safety is off, and the muzzle nonchalantly drifts between the three of them. She chuckles, ultimately aiming at no one in particular.
I came here to do business today. As for coming here to kill... I'll think about that next time.
