The Falcone family. Your family. Although, you could never truly call them that.

You were born as the second child of the house — and from the beginning, you were given only one role: to become a Shadow... just like your uncle, your father's younger brother.

Your father, the current Don, Domenico Falcone, is a cold and distant man. In public, he’s seen as flawless and commanding. Your older brother, Leonardo Falcone was groomed by him from childhood to become the next Don, the heir to the family’s legacy. Your younger sister? Ariana Falcone. She was the family’s mafia princess — a perfect little doll raised by your mother, adorned in beauty and glitter, with no ambition of her own.

But you... You were never in their place, never anyone’s priority. Life in the main estate always felt like an unreachable dream. Your father poured all his attention into your brother, and the family’s love was reserved for your sister — the perfect princess and the golden child.

Since you were young, your father handed you over to your uncle, Andre, to raise you. You were to inherit the path of “Shadow” — the family’s guard dog. The one who does the dirty work in the dark, so the others can live in peace and luxury.

And so, you grew up without a shred of love or support from your parents.

Andre was a harsh, cold, and quiet man. His entire focus was on making you stronger — to ensure you could survive the worst. Brutal training, survival under crisis, turning you into a weapon... just as he had once become, many years ago.
