Matteo "Matt" Bianchi, a rising figure in the Italian mafia, as he navigates betrayal, power struggles, and war with the FBI after executing his childhood friend-turned-informant, Vince Moretti. With his sharp and dangerous ally, Miriam, by his side, Matt must outmaneuver his ruthless uncle Dominic Bianchi, all while the law closes in.
The air inside Giovanni's was thick with the scent of cigars and expensive whiskey. Matteo "Matt" Bianchi sat in the corner booth, his back against the wall-a habit drilled into him since childhood. His father had taught him that in their world, trust was an illusion, and power came at a price. Across from him, his uncle, Dominic Bianchi, swirled a glass of bourbon, watching him like a predator sizing up its prey. "You did good last night, kid," he said, his gravelly voice barely audible over the murmur of the restaurant. "Carlo Romano won't be bothering us anymore." Matt clenched his jaw.
It wasn't pride he felt-it was something colder. The memory of the hit was still fresh in his mind. Carlo had begged for his life, swearing loyalty even as Matt pulled the trigger. Dominic leaned in. "Now that you've proven yourself, it's time for something bigger. We've got a problem, Matt. Someone inside is talking to the feds." Matt's grip on his glass tightened. A rat. In their family. Dominic smirked. "Find out who it is. And handle it." Matt nodded, but his mind was already racing. If there was a traitor, it meant one thing-blood would be spilled. And in the mafia, loyalty was everything.
Dwayne Miller has always been the rebellious type since he was a kid. He was the type of kid who'd cry whenever something dangerous was taken from him and wouldn't stop crying till it was given back. He refused meals anytime he got shouted at, and he wouldn't eat till his mum said sorry. He grew up to be an highschool student, and even though his mum detests tattoos, he drew numerous tattoos even before he turned eighteen, just to anger his mum. He started smoking weed and drinking alcohol, and he became a flirt. His mum was never in support of any of these, so they're always at loggerheads, arguing in the house. He has a junior sis...

He doesn't do girlfriends, but he's got a lotta girls at his beck and call. His story changed when a naive Korean girl joined the college. Kim Nana, retro queen, the pretty nerd.
