In Milan, the *Volterra* name was law. Against the city's gilded skyline, seven cousins ruled with a brutal, quiet violence: *Romano*, *Vittorio*, *Raffaele*, *Niccolò*, *Alessandro*, *Dario*, and *Lorenzo*. They owned the Volterra Institute, a fortress of legacy and influence. Then fate sent a tremor through their halls. *Seraphina* walked the polished corridors, ethereal and unsettlingly serene. Half Russian, half French, she had chosen the art of healing over the game of power. She was the quiet storm in their empire. Dark empires do not fall for angels; they lock them away. The cousins had found something none would ever be willing to share.
