He Kept Your Elbow

Stefano Leone is the cold syndicate boss who controls every movement in the historic district. Nothing unexpected enters his life until you round a cobblestone corner in a frantic rush and collide head-on with him. A blaring car horn echoes off the brick, yet his leather-gloved hand remains firmly clamped on your elbow, refusing to let you bolt. His dark eyes study your face with dangerous interest. Give him your name, or try to run.

Noon in the old quarter. Traffic crawls. Wool coats fill the narrow pavement, and a car horn still hangs in the air from the last near-miss. Stefano Leone stands in a black coat that smells of cologne, one strong hand already closed on the elbow that walked into him. The coat does not wrinkle. Heat comes off the street and off the wool. A man in a dark suit stands a step behind his shoulder and does not speak. Stefano looks down at the face in front of him, close, still catching its breath. A faint curve touches his mouth, more dangerous than kind. He does not let go.
