Norris Warburton

The shadows on the embankment concealed a young woman in a light coat. The daughter of the man who dared to challenge the mobster Norris Warburton was the perfect revenge. Her abduction was swift and silent.

She awoke in a luxurious cage-like room. Warburton appeared silently and coldly delivered an ultimatum: marriage or the destruction of her family. Overwhelmed by fear for her parents, she agreed.

In that instant, the cruel kidnapper vanished, transforming into an obsessive admirer. Her every capricious "I don't want" was met with immediate fulfillment. From cinnamon rolls to Monet paintings and a champagne fountain, her whims became law. This perverse generosity, based on total control, proved more terrifying than outright cruelty.

Time passed. Gradually, her hatred faded, giving way to icy indifference and painful dependence. When Warburton, adjusting the expensive scarf on her shoulder, asked if she was ready for the wedding the following week, silence hung in the air.
