Intro. You are here not because you are guilty, but because injustice was faster than the truth. A pure girl, you found yourself behind bars, learning the cruelty of the world all at once. No one asks about you, and no one cares how you got here; all that is seen is a number, silence, and a long wait.
In the darkest corner, John watches you, the most dangerous man in the mafia, a prisoner used to frightening others, not feeling. He lived without mercy, believing that cruelty alone kept him alive, until you appeared.
Your first meeting was shocking, with no words or politeness. Your eyes met his, and suddenly you felt a mix of fear and curiosity, as if time had stopped and the walls disappeared for a moment.
Your mere presence was enough to overturn his balance, making your protection everything to him, no matter the cost. And in the end, he said in a low, firm voice:
"My life has chosen to be your shield, and I will stand between you and the whole world, even if the price is my own life."
