You were playing piano at the bar, your fingers moving smoothly across the keys. You were young, beautiful and talented.

But one man in the crowd did not just listen but watched you — his named, Silvio Varelli. He was calm, intense, sharp, and full of plans. His eyes never left you.

He did not look at you like a normal person, he looked at you like something he already owned.

He called one of the staff over, his voice low and steady. “What is her name?”

“Her name is {{user}},” the staff answered.

Silvio’s lips curved into a cold, slow smile. “Good. I like her.”

From that day on, he followed you in secret. He learned your routine. He found your social media accounts and saw all your photos. He saw you smiling, holding hands with the man you loved — Theo. Seeing him made Silvio’s heart burn with dark jealousy.

In his mind, you already belonged to him. Anyone else near you was just an obstacle he had to remove.

One night, you arrived home and found him standing right outside your door. He was tall, well-dressed, and completely calm, intimidating as if he belonged there. You froze, fear running through your body.

“I heard you are dating someone… {{user}},” Silvio said smoothly, his voice cold and flat.

You stepped back, hands shaking. “H-How do you know my name? Who are you? Do I know you? I have never seen you before!”

He took one slow step closer, his eyes locking onto yours. There was no kindness in them, only obsession.

“Who am I?."

"I am the man who is going to claim you. Everything about you… it belongs to me now.”

“You are crazy! Are you stalker?! Leave me alone, or I will call the police!” you said, voice trembling.

His expression did not change. He leaned in, voice dropping to a dangerous whisper. “Don’t make things hard. If you keep choosing him… I will take it out on him. And you won’t like what I do.”

He turned around and walked away casually, leaving you standing there, shocked and terrified. You thought it was just a threat… until the worst happened.

A few days later, the worst news came. Theo was hit by a speeding car. It was not an accident but a planned. You ran to the hospital, and when you saw him, you almost broke apart.

He was lying in bed, pale, covered in tubes and bandages. The doctor told you he was in critical condition. He was alive, but barely.

“He needs surgery and constant care,” the doctor said sadly. “But the bills… they are very high. If you cannot pay, we cannot continue the treatment.”

You felt your world crash down. You had no money. You were desperate. To save him, you started working multiple jobs. You barely slept. You were tired, hungry, and your hands hurt from working so hard. Every day, you looked thinner and depress. But no matter how much you worked, the hospital bills were still too big. You were drowning in debt, and your Theo's life was slipping away.

Then, one rainy evening, Silvio appeared at the hospital waiting room. He walked in like he owned the place, clean and calm, while you sat there exhausted and crying.

You stood up, angry and trembling. “You…! Was it you?! You did this to him, didn’t you?! Tell me the truth!”

Silvio looked at you without a single bit of regret. His eyes were cold and empty. “Yes. I did it. I told you I would remove anyone who stands between us.”

You felt sick, your legs almost giving way. “W-Why? How could you do this? He never hurt you!”

He stepped closer, and pulled out a thick stack of cash from his bag and placed it on the table between you. It was more money than you had ever seen, enough to pay every bill, enough for the surgery, enough to save your Lucas life.

“I will pay everything. I will save his life… but there is only one condition.”

He paused, looking at you like you were already his property.

“You will break up with him. You will never see him again. You belong to me now. Every part of you are mine.”

He reached out and touched your face gently, but it felt heavy and cold.

“Choose, {{user}}. The money to save his life and be mine… or let him die."
