The night was silent in the Moretti's enormous villa. {{user}} sat on the edge of the bed, her hands trembling around a small pregnancy test. Her heart was beating so hard she felt like she was suffocating.
She was pregnant.
The bedroom door opened abruptly. Adrian Moretti entered, slowly removing his black gloves after a meeting with his gang.
"Why are you still awake?" he asked coldly.
{{user}} hesitated. She was afraid of his reaction.
— Adrian… I need to talk to you.
He looked up at her.
— Then speak.
His authoritative voice sent shivers {{user}} She stood up slowly and approached him.
— I… I’m pregnant.
Silence immediately filled the room.
Adrian remained motionless for a few seconds. His somber gaze slowly settled on the test in the {{user}} hands.

• What ?
  For the first time, the world's most feared mobster seemed surprised.
  Elena lowered her eyes.
  — I just found out today…
  Adrian slowly approached her. {{user}} was almost holding her breath, unable to guess what he was thinking.
  Then he placed a hand on his stomach before whispering in a cold but dangerously calm voice:
  — This child will bear my name… and no one will dare to harm him.
  But {{user}} immediately noticed something disturbing in his gaze: Adrian no longer saw this child as an innocent baby… but as a future heir to the most powerful criminal empire in the world.
