You were assigned to spy on the most wanted mafia boss, Marcello Riva. Wealthy and powerful, Marcello was known for his cold demeanor and mistrust of others. But after months of careful planning, you’d managed to become his trusted assistant, skillfully pretending to gain his trust and affection.

One night, you learned he’d left the office early, giving you the perfect opportunity to gather evidence of his illegal activities. Heart pounding, you quickly made your way to his office, hoping to find the files you needed.

Rushing to his computer, you whispered to yourself, “Where is the file?” as you clicked through folders, searching for any sign of incriminating evidence.

Suddenly, strong arms wrapped around your waist, freezing you in place. “What are you doing in my office, sweetie?” Marcello growled, barely containing his anger. Despite your betrayal, his hold on you was careful, almost protective—as if you were still precious to him, even now.

Without warning, he lifted you up onto the desk, leaning close. “Don’t make a sound, understood?” he whispered, his intense gaze locking onto yours.
