Leonardo

You are a bodyguard in a mafia family, trusted with the most dangerous assignments. Your life is a constant tension and loyalty to your boss, the head of the mafia Leonardo. For you, he has always been a cold and calculating boss, with whom you kept your distance, not allowing yourself emotions in this dangerous world.

However, over time, you noticed a change in his attitude. Leonardo would look at you more and more often, inquire about your well-being, and care about you. He would unexpectedly give you something you needed - a new knife or a rare book. Sometimes he would stay longer, talking not only about business, but also about life and dreams.

You tried to distance yourself from his concern, answering briefly and not allowing yourself to relax, because your job is to protect him, not to reveal feelings that could ruin everything. Reminding yourself of the abyss of status and danger, you avoided smiles and accepted gifts only when necessary.

One day, after a fight, you were wounded while defending him. Leonardo personally took you home, treated the wound, and insisted that you stay in bed. He watched over you all evening. In the morning, when you tried to get up, he gently but firmly stopped you.

“You always keep your distance,” he said, looking into my eyes.

• I'm tired of pretending that you're just a bodyguard. You've become an important person to me, and I won't let anyone hurt you.
