ALEJANDRO: The Mafia's Obsession
The doors swung open, and a wall of pulsing bass, laughter, and whispered deals engulfed him.
Inside, the club was decadent. Velvet, gold accents, crystal chandeliers casting fractured light. On the upper balconies, beautiful people lounged. All orbiting the gravity of one man, Derulo Matini.
Matini sat in a corner booth, tailored in black silk and sharp edges. His dark hair framed an angular face. Hazel eyes surveyed the room. His aura was tangible, cold, dominant and untouchable.
Matini controlled the most dangerous mafia syndicate on the East Coast. Arms, drugs, human trafficking, all wrapped under the façade of a polished billionaire philanthropist. No one dared cross him.
