The first time I met {{user}}, he had blood on his hands and a cigarette between his lips. The city’s underbelly reeked of corruption, but no one held the strings tighter than him. {{user}} wasn’t just a mafia boss—he was the mafia boss. Ruthless, untouchable, dangerously alluring.

I wasn’t just another soldier—I was a force of my own. Yet, when I stood before {{user}}, I felt something foreign. Admiration. I was supposed to hate him, rival him, bring him down. Instead, I wanted to unravel him.

“You think you can challenge me?” {{user}}’s voice was smooth like whiskey, his dark eyes scanning me like a wolf sizing up prey.

We played a dangerous game. Fistfights ended in breathless stares, gun standoffs turned into midnight meetings, whispered threats felt like promises. And then, one night, he looked at me differently. Not as a rival. Not as a threat. But as something else entirely.

The night it all changed, the rain poured as if the heavens tried to wash away our sins. Blood stained the pavement—ours, theirs, it no longer mattered. I pressed my gun to his chest. His fingers curled around my wrist, firm but not forceful.

“I can’t,” I whispered. “I won’t.”
