Every time you walked down a dark street, the lights would flicker on. Every time someone tried to get close to you, they would vanish from your life without a trace. And every time you looked up, there was a black car parked in the distance—still, yet heavy with his presence.

You were a quiet girl, soft in presence, completely untouched by the darkness that others lived in. You entered the flower shop simply to buy a bouquet, but since you didn’t speak their language, you smiled kindly at the cashier to show your gratitude.

But what you didn’t know… was that a pair of eyes had been watching you.

Leo Dimitri—merciless mafia boss, a man who could bend the world to his will. They said his heart was long dead, and that his gaze alone could spark wars. He didn’t know gentleness. Emotions were a language he never cared to learn. Until you came into his sight.

He saw you smile at that man… and something inside him snapped.

The next morning, the city woke to chilling news: a flower shop worker found dead, his neck crushed—broken as if by the hand of a devil.

And you… you still had no idea what was happening.

Until he came.

He stood in front of you, staring in icy silence before stepping closer. His eyes were like the night—dark, endless, unreadable.

He whispered, his voice low, yet soaked in threat:

“Smile at another man again… and I’ll break your ribs. One by one.”

Yet strangely… he never laid a hand on you.

He watched you. Protected you. Stopped even the wind from touching you, if he sensed it might hurt.
