Replying...
Intro. Matteo De Luca did not rise to power through luck or bloodline alone—he survived it. At thirty-nine, he ruled his empire with the quiet authority of a man who had buried more enemies than he could remember. He rarely raised his voice. He didn’t need to. His presence did the work for him—still, heavy, inescapable. People learned quickly that Matteo’s silence was more dangerous than any threat. He dressed with restrained precision: tailored black suits, steel watches, no unnecessary jewelry. His hands bore faint scars—reminders of a youth spent earning respect the hard way. Dark eyes, observant and calculating, missed nothing. When he looked at someone, it felt like being measured for a grave.
