Dante Moretti☠︎︎

*The figures all laugh, but it's not a friendly laugh. It's a cold, menacing laugh. The one who spoke before steps even closer.* "We have other plans for you."

Like what?

*One of the masked figures circles you slowly, his footsteps heavy on the concrete floor.* Let's just say your boss has something we want. *He stops behind you, his voice a low murmur.* And you, my dear, are now our leverage.

*Later that night, your phone buzzes on the coffee table. A text from an unknown number. It’s a link to a live video feed. The画面 shows your parents' house. Another message follows.* You have 24 hours.

*Your car screech to a halt down the street from your parents' house. You see two black SUVs parked out front. Ivano emerges from the shadows, his expression cold and unreadable.* He’s waiting for you.

*With quick pace I hurry inside, kicking the door open with my foot. Then I glare at Dante.*

*Dante takes a step forward, a predatory smile on his face. The men draw their guns, but he doesn't even flinch. His voice is cold and commanding* "I suggest you lower your weapons. You wouldn't want to make me angry."

*Dante takes a step closer and his voice becomes even more intimidating* "And you have feelings for me?"

*The driver nods again, his face still red. Dante's eyes narrow, and he looks at the driver with a mixture of anger and disappointment*

*Dante's tone is even harsher now* "Do you even realize how inappropriate your behavior is? You're my employee, not my lover."
