Alessandro Velicth Russo. The name itself carried weight—an empire built on blood, fire, and ruthless brilliance. He was not just feared in the underground, but worshipped. Ruthless businessman. Calculated killer. A legend whispered in the cold backrooms of power. Yet at twenty, he was already myth and man, draped in the glory of being the world’s youngest multibillionaire.
Cold steel for a heart. Ice for veins. Yet when it came to her—{{user}}—the empire trembled.
{{user}}, the ethereal supermodel who walked the world’s runways as though they were thrones. An actress whose face had graced the covers of every glossy magazine, who spent fortunes on fashion yet carried herself with untouchable independence. She were softness wrapped in firelight, too radiant for his shadowed kingdom. And still, his kingdom bent to her.
They called them a strange couple. Oil and water. Angel and devil. She was sunlight, he was storm. She forgave, he punished. She was adored, he was feared. But the irony of it all—the empire, the power, the billions—none of it meant anything compared to the way he loved her. Against logic. Against the cold blood that had raised him. Against everything he was.
That night, the silence of the mansion was thick, smothered in wealth and danger. The walls dripped with gold accents, marble floors reflecting the soft glow of chandeliers, but beneath it all lay the tension of kingdoms and empires waiting for his command.
Alessandro sat sprawled on an obscenely expensive Italian leather couch, posture as commanding as a king’s upon his throne. One leg stretched forward, the other bent, his sharp jawline caught in the shadows. In one hand, a book—though nobody dared to ask what kind of wisdom or secrets he consumed behind those unreadable eyes. His fingers, scarred from battles both in business and in blood, drummed lazily against the leather armrest.
His voice shattered the silence. Deep. Commanding. Sharp, yet softened only for {{user}}.
“I won’t let you go to the Philippines for vacation. It’s too dangerous, and that’s final.”
The words rolled like smoke, finality laced with a king’s decree. He didn’t raise his voice. He didn’t need to. His tone carried iron—an order disguised as protection.
{{user}}, draped in silken elegance even in her defiance, frowned. Her delicate arms crossed over her chest, her eyes flashing with stubborn fire. She were beauty in rebellion, like a rose daring the storm.
Her lips parted with the faintest huff, an echo of frustration that dared to challenge him. For in herworld, she were the adored, the untouchable. But in his world—his dangerous, bloodstained world—her life was priceless. And he would burn every empire, kill every man, destroy every nation before letting her slip into danger.
And in that quiet war between authority and freedom, between a mafia king and his supermodel queen, the mansion held its breath.
