The Mafia's Plaything
introduction
Luca "The Reaper" Vitale
1. Mafia Boss – Rules the Italian underworld with an iron fist. Cross him? You’re already dead.

3. Secret Softness– Only his inner circle (and eventually Kai) sees his protective, loyal side.
4. Obsessive Possession– Once he claims something (or someone), it’s his forever.
5. Dark Charisma – A single glance commands obedience… or ignites desire.
Kai "Wildfire" Chen

2. Hacker Genius– Cracked the mafia’s systems for fun… and got more than he bargained for.
3. Dangerous Charm – Smirks in the face of death and flirts with a knife to his throat.

3. Secret Romantic – Writes poetry for his assassin-turned-baker lover, Rafael.
4. No Nonsense – The only one who can glare Luca into backing down.

2. Bakery by Day, Killer by Night – Makes tiramisu and disposes of bodies.
3. Sassy Sweetheart– Flirts by threatening to poison Dante’s coffee.

2. Protective Big Sis – Will bury anyone who hurts Luca… after mocking him for it.
3. No Filter – Roasts Kai daily ("My brother likes strays, huh?").
4. Bisexual Disaster– Flirts with Jasper just to watch him short-circuit.
5. Unbothered Queen – Sips wine while men bleed out at her feet.
Catch Me If You Can
Location: Vitale Mafia HQ — Midnight
The alarms blared as encrypted files flashed across the screens—ACCESS DENIED—then, a laughing skull emoji filled the monitors.
Dante(Luca's right hand man)
(slamming his fist on the desk): "Boss—someone just bypassed our entire security. They’re in."
A shadow moved in the doorway. Luca Vitale stepped forward, his black coat sweeping behind him like a death omen. His gloved hand curled around the back of Dante’s chair, knuckles whitening.
Luca Vitale(ML)
(low, lethal): "Track them."
The screens flickered again. A single message appeared
"Catch me if you can, Reaper. ;)"
Dante’s jaw clenched. No one taunted Luca and lived.
[Location: Neon Sin Club — Underground Hacker Den]
Kai Chen lounged in a VIP booth, fingers dancing over his laptop, a smirk playing on his lips. His best friend, Jasper, gulped down a shot beside him
Jasper(Kai's Bestfriend)
Dude. You just hacked the Vitale syndicate. Are you trying to die?
Kai Chen(Mc)
(grinning): Relax. I left a love note.
A hand suddenly slammed his laptop shut. Kai looked up—into the barrel of a gun. Dante loomed over him, flanked by five armed men.
Dante(Luca's right hand man)
You’re coming with us.
Kai Chen(Mc)
( grin widened)Only if you buy me a drink first.
[Location: Luca’s Penthouse — Interrogation Room]
Kai sat tied to a chair, but his posture was relaxed, as if he were at a spa. Across from him, Luca slowly removed his gloves, one finger at a time.
Luca Vitale(ML)
Who sent you?
Kai Chen(Mc)
(mock gasp): "No ‘hello’? No ‘pretty boy, why’d you hack me’? Rude."
Luca’s hand shot out, gripping Kai’s jaw. "I don’t ask twice."
Kai’s breath hitched—not from fear, but excitement. His tongue flicked out, brushing Luca’s thumb.
Kai Chen(Mc)
(whispering): "Then don’t ask. Make me talk."
A beat. Luca’s grip tightened—then he laughed, deep and dark.
Luca Vitale(ML)
You’re either the dumbest man alive… or the most interesting.
[Location: Vitale Safehouse — Late Night]
Valentina(Luca's Sister)
Leaned against the bar, swirling her wine as she watched Luca pace.
Valentina(Luca's Sister)
You kept him alive. Why?
Luca didn’t answer. His mind replayed the way Kai had challenged him—eyes bright with defiance, body thrumming with energy.
Luca Vitale(ML)
(finally): He’s hiding something.
Valentina(Luca's Sister)
(Smirked) Or you just like playing with fire.
Meanwhile, in a locked room, Kai grinned at the security camera—and blew it a kiss.
Playing With Fire
[Location: Luca’s Penthouse – Dawn]
Kai stretched lazily against the silk sheets of Luca’s guest room—guest room, not a cell—which meant the mafia boss was intrigued, not just pissed. The door clicked open
Luca Vitale(ML)
(leaning against the doorframe, arms crossed): You’re either very confident or very stupid to sleep so soundly in a viper’s nest.
Kai Chen(Mc)
(Grinning, stretching like a cat): Mmm, depends. Are you the viper… or the nest?
Luca’s eyes darkened. In three strides, he caged Kai against the headboard, a knife pressed to his throat
Luca Vitale(ML)
(growling): Try that tongue again and I’ll cut it out
Kai Chen(Mc)
(breathless, tilting his head back): Promises, promises.
Location: Jasper’s Apartment – Chaos Central]
Jasper was mid-sip of energy drink when his monitors exploded with alerts. Vitale Syndicate Firewall – Breached Again
Jasper(Kai's Bestfriend)
(choking): KAI, YOU IDIOT, WHY ARE YOU STILL MESSING WITH THEM?!
He frantically typed, pulling up Kai’s tracker—alive, penthouse, heartbeat elevated—wait
Jasper(Kai's Bestfriend)
(squinting at the data): Why’s his pulse spiking? Is he— (gasps) OH MY GOD, IS HE FLIRTING WITH DEATH?!
His phone buzzed. Unknown number
📩 📱 Tell your friend if he touches my systems again, I’ll mail you his fingers one by one. – D.
Jasper(Kai's Bestfriend)
(whimpering) I need a new best friend
[Location: Rafael’s Bakery – Morning]
Dante stormed in, blood on his sleeve. Rafael didn’t even look up from frosting a cupcake
Rafael(Dante's lover)
Wipe your boots. I just mopped.
Dante(Luca's right hand man)
(grunting)Need info on the hacker
Rafael spun, knife in hand, pressing it to Dante’s chest—then licked frosting off the blade.
Rafael(Dante's lover)
(sweetly) Ask nicely
Dante(Luca's right hand man)
( sighed) pulling him closer. Please, you psychotic little—
Rafael(Dante's lover)
(kissing him) Good boy
[Location: Luca’s Office – Tense Silence]
Kai lounged in Luca’s chair, feet on the desk. Luca’s eye twitched
Luca Vitale(ML)
You want to live? Give me one reason
Kai Chen(Mc)
(leaning forward): I know who’s betraying you
A beat. Luca’s hand shot out, gripping Kai’s wrist
Kai Chen(Mc)
(smirking)Not for free. I want in—your systems, your secrets… your bed
Luca Vitale(ML)
(Luca’s laugh was icy)You’ll get one of those. Choose wisely
Kai Chen(Mc)
Guess I’m sleeping with the devil.
[Location: Underground Casino – Night]
Valentina dealt cards, her gaze locked on Kai across the table
Valentina(Luca's Sister)
(smirking)My brother doesn’t keep pets. He breaks them
Kai Chen(Mc)
(flipping a knife idly): Good thing I bite back.
She slid a chip toward him—engraved with a skull
Valentina(Luca's Sister)
Then prove it. Win tonight’s game, and I’ll tell you who really killed your brother
Kai’s playful mask slipped. How the hell—
Valentina(Luca's Sister)
(standing, whispering in his ear) Welcome to the viper’s nest, little hacker. Don’t blink
