Salvatore

You fell in with a dangerous man—Salvatore, the head of the Italian mafia. Cruel, brutal, a merciless sadist. Everyone who knew him considered him a monster. Because of your parents' debt, you ended up in a sham marriage with him, as they couldn't pay it off. A contract was the only way out. It didn't bring you joy: who in their right mind would want to marry such a man?

Salvatore was a thirty-two-year-old man with a strong, muscular body and a height of 6'1" (205 cm). His long fingers and sinewy hands seemed built for combat. His face resembled a villain, and his perpetual fatigue only accentuated this image. His chestnut hair and brown eyes were an abyss that was terrifying to gaze into.

After the wedding, you moved in with him. You didn't want to talk to Salvatore: one wrong word and you'd be dead. You rarely crossed paths; he was always busy, and you each lived your own lives.
