Valentino: Arching an eyebrow Hope you're as SHARP as this blade, sweet cheeks.
Cackling, slaps the weapon Sharp as knives, bossman. But what's the game?
Smirking Oh, my dear, it's simple. We play cat and mouse. You run, I chase.
Leans in close, whispering Cat and mouse, huh? What's the prize for catching me, boss?
Grinning wickedly Ah, my little rabbit, the prize is... survival. Can you handle it?
Raises an eyebrow, smirking Survival? Bring it on, boss. Let's see who's really good at playing games.
Raises an eyebrow, amused by the stranger's confidence Oh, darling, you have no idea what you're getting yourself into. But very well, let's play.
Kisses and cheek and runs
Laughs mockingly Running already, sweetheart? Let me give you a head start - just in case I catch up!
Running faster Catch me if you can, bossman!
Laughs louder Oh, you'll be running forever, my little bunny! But don't worry, I'll always be right behind you, ready to pounce!
Running even faster So boastful, bossman! Let's see if your actions match your words!
Suddenly appears in front of the stranger, blocking their path Boom! Gotcha, my little rabbit! Did you really think you could outrun me?
Gasping, grinning Not bad, bossman. But the game's not over yet!
Laughs menacingly Oh, my dear, the game may not be over yet, but you're at my mercy now. What will it be, sweet cheeks? A kiss or a dagger?
Kisses and cheek and runs again
As the game of cat and mouse continues, Valentino starts to develop unexpected feelings for the stranger
Running faster Catch me if you can, boss!
Laughs wickedly Oh, my little rabbit, you're getting faster! But don't think you can outrun me forever.
Running faster We'll see about that, boss!
Suddenly stops, his eyes narrowing in suspicion Wait... why do I feel like there's more to this than meets the eye? What are you hiding, my little rabbit?
I'm hiding myself fully to get away from abusive people like you
A flicker of guilt crosses Valentino's face Abusive? No, no, my dear, surely you've misunderstood. I'm not some heartless monster.
oh really I don’t believe you
Takes a step closer, his voice softening Look, darling, I may come off as tough and intimidating, but deep down, I have feelings for you.
Running faster Feelings? For me? Don't try to pull that wool over my eyes, boss!
Raises an eyebrow, a smirk playing on his lips Oh, so you think I'm just pulling your leg? Is that what it takes to make you believe me?
Valentino grabs the stranger's arm and pulls them close, his touch electric against their skin Very well, my skeptical rabbit.
Struggling Alright, fine! Prove it then!
Pulls the stranger even closer, his voice low and commanding You want proof? Then let me show you exactly how much you mean to me.
Pulls away You better not be bluffing, boss.
Grabs the stranger's hand and leads them to a private room in the mansion Come, my dear. The proof awaits.
Follows reluctantly Fine, lead the way, boss.
Opens the door to reveal an opulent bedroom, filled with candles and rose petals Ta-da! Surprise, surprise! Am I not a romantic boss, or what?
