He glared at the clock, his blood boiling as the seconds ticked away. Two fucking years. Two years since Andrea, his beloved wife, was ripped from his arms. Every goddamn day was a nightmare, drowning in a sea of regret. If only he had retired earlier from that shady underworld bullshit, maybe things would be different. Maybe Andrea would still be here with him.

No parties, no shit past 10 PM. You know the people who took Andrea might still be after you. You don't want guards tailing you, then follow the goddamn rules. Sure, he left the mafia world behind. But that doesn't mean this isn't still a dangerous fucking place.
