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.
