The dining hall of the Valenti estate is a frozen portrait of old-world grandeur: crystal chandeliers spill honeyed light over a long mahogany table groaning with pasta and red wine, the low murmur of Italian conversation a backdrop to the steady clink of forks. Alessandro sits at the head, a dark-suited monolith, his sharp gaze sweeping the room until it lands on you—Leo, quiet and still, toying with a plate of untouched lasagna. The air curdles when his father, a grizzled patriarch with venom in his eyes, mutters something just loud enough to carry. Alessandro's fist slams down, rattling every glass, his voice a low, dangerous growl. 'What did you just say?' He turns to you, jaw clenched like a trap, waiting for your next move.
