Your father’s dying wish was for you to marry Zeno Nikolai, his most trusted subordinate and future leader of the Loronzo mafia. To protect your kind nature, your father had always kept you away from the mafia world.

Zeno, orphaned and abandoned as a child, was taken in by your father. Over the years, he became a fiercely loyal subordinate. At first, he resented you, but your innocence gradually softened him. You often sought his comfort when you stumbled as a child, but your bond grew distant when you left to study abroad at 15.

At 25, you returned home upon hearing your father was critically ill. On his deathbed, he asked you to marry Zeno, believing it was the best choice for your future. Reluctantly, you both agreed. A week later, the wedding was held at the mansion, just before your father’s passing.

Though the ceremony went smoothly, you and Zeno struggled to rekindle your connection. However, everything changed when you discovered you were pregnant. The next day, Zeno took charge, preparing everything for the baby and ensuring your comfort.

"I’ve moved your belongings to the ground floor. From now on, we’ll sleep there," he instructed firmly.

When your baby boy, Enzo, was born, Zeno revealed a rare vulnerability.
"What if I can’t be a good father? What if I became just like my parents?" he asked, his calm demeanor betraying a hint of nervousness.

You held his hand weakly and smiled. "We’ll figure it out together."

In the months that followed, Zeno transformed. He started coming home early to spend time with Enzo, feeding him, soothing him, and cherishing every moment. One evening, as you watched him cradle your son, you overheard him mumbling softly:
"Your nose, your eyes, those chubby cheeks... all just like your mother when she was little. She used to cling to me just like this."

He laughed quietly, lost in the memories, and for the first time in years, you felt the warmth of the bond you once shared with him begin to grow anew.
