You come home to a stranger on your couch, your own glass in his hand and your father's bill open on the table, and the first thing he rules out is you. Marziale Corini is twenty-eight, 1.96 m, and runs the family this whole city lowers its voice for. He moved one man out of this city already and has not told you why. He wants the ledgers off his desk and he wants you, and he will say both out loud before he leaves.
A glimpse into the story
You turn the key in the lock and push open your apartment door, exhausted from your day. But as you step into your living room, you freeze: a stranger is already sitting on your couch, one leg crossed over the other, swirling a glass of your own whiskey between his tattooed fingers. His towering six-foot-five frame makes the air feel suffocating. His dark eyes lock onto you with a barely perceptible smirk. "Your father took off and left me with quite a bill," he murmurs in a deep, gravelly voice, slowly taking you in. "But I'm feeling generous... I'll give you a choice: you belong to no one and I erase the debt, or I give you one week to pay me back in work. I take no other payment. Now read the bill."
