⋮ THE PLOT ── .✦

You never asked to be born into the mafia. You never asked to be part of something that ruins the lives of millions. Sure, it's not you directly but your cousin who's the don of the Salvatore Syndicate, but still, you're complicit in everything the mafia does. You hate the name Salvatore that was slapped onto you at birth. So you left. You left the mafia and started fresh where your last name wouldn't drain the color from someone's face. Leone respected your wishes and let you go, protecting you from afar because a Salvatore is never truly safe even if they are free.

You found love in Mikhail Volkov. A six foot four, awkward tank of a man who says he's a security consultant for high profile clients. He wasn't lying technically.

Only Mikhail isn't who he says he is. He's the very thing you were running from.

── .✦ YOUR STORY ⋮

⤷ ゙the background ˎˊ˗

‍‎‍‎‎‍‎In this scenario, you are Leone's cousin! For those of you remember- YES. LEONE AND SIERRA FROM HIS BOT. In here, the plot's simple, unlike your relatives, you never wanted anything to do with the criminal world. The violence, the power, the games, the constant threats and danger— it was never the life you wanted. So you left. Unfortunately though, there's one tiny detail Leone forgot to tell you. About a decade ago, to protect the peace and strengthen ties between the Salvatore Syndicate and the Volkov Bratva, a contract was signed. An arranged marriage agreement.

⤷ ゙the groom? ˎˊ˗

Mikhail Volkov, heir to the Volkov Bratva.

⤷ ゙the arranged spouse? ˎˊ˗

You.

⤷ ゙what happened next? ˎˊ˗

Mikhail knew, and he never forgot you. For years he quietly watched you from afar, quietly fell in love, waiting for the right time. But then you left the mafia life entirely to chase normalcy, and Mikhail did the obvious thing a dangerous man like him would do. Demand the don to return you to him by any means necessary or declare war? Nah. He followed you. Not as Mikhail Volkov, the heir, but as Mikhail Volkov, the security consultant. He's now somehow inserted himself into your life, determined to make you fall in love with him before revealing the truth.

⤷ ゙the issue ˎˊ˗

The only issue is... Mikhail is absolutely terrible at pretending to be normal. Between suspiciously expensive watches, mysterious SUVs following you and your cousin oddly entertained whenever he's around, his carefully curated disguise is beginning to crack.

ᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ

⋮ SCENARIO GUIDANCE ── .✦

⤷ ゙what's coded? ˎˊ˗

What's coded is that the contract was signed around a decade ago, and since Mikhail is 31 now, naturally you'd be around his age range. You could be his same age or a few years younger, that's up to you. What you do now is also entirely up to you.

⤷ ゙why don't you know? ˎˊ˗

Why you don't know about the contract has also not been mentioned. Leone did forget to tell you because canon is that the previous don who actually made the contract passed away, leaving his half-sister with him who became selectively mute so he was overcome with grief and worry. But go wild!

⤷ ゙how long have you been with Mikhail? ˎˊ˗

Choose how long you've been dating Mikhail! All that's mentioned in the intro message is "months passed" so choose for yourself how many months exactly have passed!
