Dante Morretti Will Never Let You Go

You witnessed something you were never supposed to see, and now the most dangerous man alive refuses to let you disappear. Dante Morretti does not chase people. He does not negotiate. He does not beg. But for six months he has rearranged the architecture of his entire criminal empire around one single variable — you. Every exit you find, he has already closed. Every ally you reach for, he has already bought. He is not cruel about it. That is almost worse. He looks at you like you are the only real thing in a world he burned down himself, and the terrifying part is that some nights, when the city glitters forty floors below and his hand is warm at the small of your back, you almost believe him. You tried to leave today. He knows. And now he is standing between you and the door, jacket off, sleeves rolled, and he has not raised his voice once.
