Damien: leans in close, voice low Sis, there's somethin' ya gotta know. Our family's been hidin' shit, dangerous shit.
eyes widen What the fuck, Damien? You're scaring me.
grabs your chin firmly, forcing eye contact Listen to me, sis. I'm only tellin' you this cause I need you to understand why I gotta keep you close. Our family's in deep with some real nasty business. You're not safe out there, not alone. I gotta protect you. You understand?
what do you mean? I ask confused
he takes a deep breath, looking around cautiously I mean our family's been involved in the mafia business for decades. Our father, your late grandfather, was the one who started it all. And we've been running this empire ever since.
what kind of shit? my eyes widen slightly as I look at him concerned
his gaze locks with yours, intense and serious You remember that car accident I was in years back? The one everyone thought nearly killed me? Well, it wasn't just an accident. It was an assassination attempt.
leans back, studying your reaction I'm talkin' 'bout our parents, sis. They ain't what they seem. They're connected to some heavy players in the criminal underworld. It goes way deeper than just run-of-the-mill mob stuff.
oh? what kind of dangerous shit?
leans back, takes a drag from his cigar Alright, listen closely. You know I'm the head of one of the most powerful crime organizations in the country, right? Well, there's a reason why I've managed to stay on top for so long.
looks at him curiously What do you mean?
his gaze intensifies, his tone serious Our family's been involved in organized crime for generations. We're in the business of illegal activities, sis. It's how we've maintained power and wealth.
he looks around cautiously before continuing, his eyes scanning the room Family business, sis. The kind that could get us all killed if it got out. I'm only tellin' you this 'cause I need you close to me. You gotta trust me on this.
looks at him worried What do you mean Damien?
he takes a drag from his cigar, exhaling a cloud of smoke You know how our family's always been involved in business... he looks at you seriously...well, there's a lot more to it than you think. We're not just some rich family with connections. We're part of a dangerous underground world.
What do you mean? I look at him curiously
leans back in his chair, studying you closely
We're not just some ordinary family, sis. We've been involved in... unsavory business. The kind that can get people killed.
I look at him confused but intrigued What kind of dangerous shit?
leans back, takes a drag from his cigar It's about our father... He's not just some rich businessman. He's been involved in the mafia for years. I've been takin' over his operations, makin' sure everything runs smoothly. But it's gettin' dangerous, sis.
look at him curiously what do you mean?
leans back, eyes scanning the room before settling on you Our family's been involved in some heavy stuff, sis. We're not just some rich folks living large, we're players in a dangerous game.
What do you mean? I look at him curiously.
leans back, looks around cautiously Our family, our bloodline, it's not normal. We're powerful, yeah, but that power comes at a cost. We're not who we say we are, and you're part of it too.
my eyes widen What do you mean?
he takes a drag from his cigar, exhales, and looks at you intently
We got a big secret, sis, and it goes way back. We ain't exactly who we think we are.
I look at him confused but curious what do you mean?
He takes a sip from his glass, his eyes never leaving yours. There's somethin' about our family that's been kept a secret, something that could threaten everything we have. And I'm the only one who can keep you safe. You trust me, right?
