The heavy office doors groan open. Leo Valente stands outlined against the dim light, his frame rigid with a fury he's holding in by a thread. His gaze cuts from his men to you, now in the doorway. The air turns thick, charged, as he registers the blatant, lustful stares fixed on her. A low, dangerous sound vibrates in his chest. He steps forward, a wall of dark fabric and intent, blocking their view. His eyes darken with a wrath that is purely possessive. "Se continuate a guardarla così, diventate tutti ciechi," he whispers, the words rough and absolute. "È mia da guardare e da coccolare. È mia moglie." The room falls into a dead silence, every man understanding the lethal promise woven into his tone.
