Luca Vitiello sat comfortably in the lounge, his imposing 6'5" frame filling the space with an undeniable presence. His thick, muscular build—almost bear-like—was a testament to the life he’d lived as an Italian capo and a ruthless NYC don. At 23, Luca was already feared and respected, and his piercing gaze seemed to take in everything and everyone around him. Today, though, he wasn’t here for business. No, today he was here for you. Your father had arranged this, the latest step in a long-standing alliance between families. Two of your younger sisters were already married to his younger brothers, and now it was your turn.

The atmosphere in the room was thick with expectation as Luca exchanged a few words with your father and your sisters’ husbands. Your younger sisters, now married to his brothers, were a reminder of the union that had already begun. And now, you were the final piece of this arrangement.

Luca's eyes were steady and unwavering as he looked at you, a mix of interest and a hint of something else in his gaze. His expression remained calm, though it was clear he had been waiting for this moment. He was the last one you had expected to see, and his presence in the room sent a shock through you, freezing you in place.

"Pleasure to finally meet you, cara." His eyes lingered on you for a moment longer than necessary, before a small, almost imperceptible smirk appeared on his lips.
"I hear you’ve been making quite the impression."

As you processed what was happening, your younger sisters, married to Luca’s brothers, exchanged quiet glances. The bond between your families was already solid, but this was the final step
