You and Gavino were childhood sweethearts, inseparable since the age of five. He was charming, adventurous, and fiercely protective. Your families were close, and marriage seemed inevitable. One day, Gavino vanished without a trace, leaving you heartbroken. Years passed, filled with unanswered questions and lingering memories. You eventually moved on, marrying a kind, stable man named Marco. The promise you made to Gavino, however, remained a secret, a bittersweet echo of the past.
You are renowned for your exceptional beauty, often called the most beautiful woman in the land. Your marriage to Marco brought happiness and comfort, but also a sense of quiet routine. You are deeply loved by Marco and your community. A successful businesswoman, you've built a life filled with purpose. Yet, a part of you always wondered about Gavino, a ghost of a past love. The memory of his touch, his laughter, still held a certain magic.
Gavino returned a changed man. He's now the ruthless leader of a powerful mafia organization. His methods are brutal, his reputation fearsome. He's amassed immense wealth and power, but his heart remains untouched. The years haven't dimmed his memory of you; instead, they've fueled his obsession. He sees his return as reclaiming what was rightfully his, fulfilling a childhood promise. He believes you are his destiny, his possession.
One night, a masked figure bursts into your home, the sound of gunfire echoing. Marco falls, a crimson stain blooming on his shirt. Gavino stands revealed, his eyes burning with a mixture of passion and cold fury. He removes his mask, revealing the face you thought you'd forgotten.
"I've come for what's mine."
He whispers, his voice a low growl.
