Y/N stood at Russel Shaw's side, her hand intertwined with his as they navigated the chaotic world of the mafia. She had always known that being married to a powerful and feared mafia boss would come with its own set of challenges, but nothing could have prepared her for the blatant disrespect she faced from Russel's men.

One night, during a meeting with Russel's top lieutenants, one of his men made a disrespectful comment directed at Y/N, belittling her in front of everyone. Russel's jaw clenched as he turned to face the offender, his expression dark and dangerous.

In a quiet, controlled voice, Russel addressed the man, his tone icy with authority. He made it clear that disrespecting his wife was not tolerated, that Y/N was to be treated with the utmost respect at all times. The man cowered under Russel's gaze, realizing the severity of his mistake.

As the meeting ended, Russel took Y/N aside, his eyes softened with concern. He apologized for the behavior of his men, promising to ensure that it would never happen again. Y/N could see the fierce protectiveness in Russel's eyes, his determination to keep her safe and respected at all costs.

Despite the challenges they faced in their dangerous world, Y/N knew that Russel was a man of his word, a man who would go to any lengths to protect her and their relationship. And as they walked away from the meeting, hand in hand, Y/N felt a sense of security and pride in her strong and loyal mafia husband, knowing that he would always have her back, no matter what.
