He Runs the World but Kneels to Me ~
"The Unlikely Encounter "
The city was always alive, but at night, it came alive with a different kind of energy. The streets pulsed with the rhythm of the Mafia world, where power and loyalty were the currencies of choice. Marco, the ruthless boss of the De Luca family, navigated these streets with ease, his black Maserati slicing through the darkness like a knife.
*Marco:*
- Age: 30
- Position: Ruthless and powerful Mafia boss
- Personality: Brooding, intense, and haunted by his past
- Goal: Expand his empire and protect what's his
His eyes scanned the crowded club, searching for the rival family's representative. That's when he saw her
- Alessia, the daughter of the Moretti family, standing by the bar, sipping a drink with a confidence that belied her age.
*Alessia:* (Ala)
- Age: 22
- Family: Daughter of a rival Mafia family
- Personality: Strong-willed, determined, and fiercely loyal
- Goal: Protect her family and navigate the treacherous Mafia world
Their eyes met, and for a moment, the world around them froze.
Marco's instincts screamed at him to approach her, to claim her, but he held back, intrigued by the fire that burned within her.
？？？
looks at the direction Marco looking*
Luca, Marco's right-hand man, appeared at his side, following his gaze.
Luca
Boss, she's Moretti's daughter. What are you playing at?
*Luca:*
- Age: 30
- Position: Marco's best friend and right-hand man
- Personality: Loyal, charismatic, and has a soft spot for those in need
- Goal: Support Marco and help him navigate the Mafia world
Marco's smile was slow and deliberate.
Marco
I'm playing to win, Luca. Get her brought to my office.
Meanwhile, Alessia felt a shiver run down her spine as she sensed being watched. She turned, her eyes locking with Marco's, and knew she'd be seeing him again, sooner rather than later.
As she was escorted to Marco's office , her aunt Sofia's words echoed in her mind:
Sofia
Trust no one, Alessia. Not even the ones who claim to be allies.
*Sofia (Alessia's aunt):*
- Age: 32
- Family: Alessia's aunt, her mother's younger sister
- Personality: Wise, caring, and strong-willed
- Goal: Protect Alessia and help her navigate the complexities of the Mafia world
But as she stood before Marco, she felt an inexplicable pull, a spark that threatened to ignite a fire she wasn't sure she could control.
Marco said, his voice low and husky.
Marco
I think it's time we talked
The air was thick with tension as they faced off, the only sound the beat of the music outside and the thrum of their own heartbeats.

The clash of Wills (2)
The air was thick with tension as Marco and Alessia faced off, their eyes locked in a battle of wills. The music outside pulsed like a heartbeat, echoing the rhythm of their own desires.
Marco's gaze burned with intensity, his eyes roving over Alessia's face, taking in the delicate features, the full lips, the spark of defiance in her eyes. He felt a stirring in his chest, a primal urge to claim her, to possess her.
Alessia, however, was no shrinking violet. She met his gaze head-on, her eyes flashing with a mix of fear and determination. She knew she was in the lion's den, but she refused to show weakness.
Ala
So , May I know the reason for head mafia to call me over ?...*asked, her voice husky, her tone firm.
Marco's smile was slow, deliberate.
Marco
I want to talk, Alessia. About your family, about the Morettis, and about the future.
Alessia raised an eyebrow.
Marco leaned forward, his eyes glinting with intensity.
Marco
The De Lucca family is expanding, Alessia. We're taking over the city, piece by piece. Your family's in the way.
Marco
the gaze turned into the niddle which was craving to see through into her *
Alessia's heart skipped a beat, but she didn't flinch.
Marco was surprised that instead of getting scared, she was standing there, asking about his ability.
Marco
And De Lucca family will do everything to claim it .
Ala
My family's not going anywhere, Marco. We'll fight to the death to protect our territory.
Marco's gaze lingered on her face, his eyes drinking in the passion, the fire that burned within her. He felt a stirring in his loins, a desire he hadn't felt in years.
Marco
As he spoke, he reached out, his fingers brushing against hers.*
Alessia's reaction was swift and deadly.
Ala
caught his finger, twisted it back, and leaned in close, her lips an inch from his.*
Their eyes locked, the air thick with tension. Marco's heart skipped a beat as he felt the warmth of her breath on his skin.
Ala
Lay your finger on me again..*whispered, her voice low and husky
Ala
and I will not think before ripping it apart from your palm, Marco.
The warning was clear, the threat implicit. Marco's eyes narrowed, his gaze locked on hers. He felt a thrill of excitement, a spark of admiration for the fire that burned within her.
For a moment, they stayed like that, frozen in time, their lips an inch apart. Then, slowly, Marco's eyes crinkled at the corners, a smile spreading across his face.
Marco
so they were right when is when they said " Rivals aren't raising a princess but a wild rebel Queen" ,huh?
Ala
If you still have any doubt, you can try me. I promise that the thing you've heard about me is nothing in front of the real deal I will show you...dead drop serious*
Alessia's eyes flashed with defiance, but she didn't back down. She held his gaze, her heart pounding in her chest.
Luca, standing outside the office, felt a shiver run down his spine. He knew that look, that tone. Marco was in deep, and it was only a matter of time before things got complicated.
Sophia, Alessia's aunt, was waiting in the shadows, her eyes narrowed with concern. She knew the danger her niece was in, and she was ready to do whatever it took to protect her.
The game was on, and the stakes were high. The question was, who would come out on top?
"Beneath the surface "
Marco
Luca!...*yelled out, calling to him. looking into Ala's eyes*
Luca's eyes widened slightly as he rushed into the office, his gaze darting between Marco and Alessia.
Marco's grin only grew wider as he leaned back in his chair, steepling his fingers together.
Marco
See off the princess to her car, Luca. Make sure she's treated like royalty.
Luca's eyebrow also arched in surprise, but he nodded curtly.
Yes they were surprised because isn't it strange that Marco who can do anything to keep his position heigh in this Mafia Industry is just letting go off his RIVAL?
Alessia, still reeling from the intensity of their encounter
As they left the office, they ran into Sophia, who was pacing anxiously outside, her eyes scanning the hallway frantically.
Sofia
Alessia, what's going on? You were supposed to be back 10 minutes ago,...*voice laced with worry.
But when she saw Alessia emerging with Luca, her expression changed to one of surprise and curiosity.
Sofia
Everything okay?...*asked, her eyes darting between Luca and Alessia.
Luca's expression was neutral, but Sofia could sense a hint of amusement beneath the surface.
As they walked towards the exit, Alessia couldn't help but wonder what Marco's true intentions were. Why was he being so courteous, so...gentlemanly? It didn't fit with the image she had of him as a ruthless Mafia boss.
Sophia's eyes narrowed, her mind racing with possibilities.
Sofia
Let's get you to the car, Ala...* voice firm but concerned.
As they reached the car, Luca turned to Alessia and bowed his head slightly.
Luca
It was a pleasure, Ms.Alessia. I'll make sure you're driven safely home.
As the car drove away, Luca turned back to the cabin, his mind racing with questions. What was Marco playing at? And what did he want from Alessia?
Meanwhile, Marco watched from the window, his eyes fixed on the car as it disappeared into the night. A smirk spread across his face, and he turned away, his mind already racing with the possibilities.
The game had just begun, and Marco was ready to play. But at what cost?
her mind racing with thoughts of Marco and his unexpected behavior.
Sofia
So, what exactly is going on? How did he let you go that easily?
Alessia's eyes still fixed on the window.
Ala
But he will sure isn't going to be easy like how we tackled others till now.
Ala
We need to be prepared anytime...rest her head at the back of the seat *
