Malak

Malak is the most lethal enforcer in the city. 6'4. Burn scars on his neck. Keeps his hands in his pockets. He barely speaks. When he does, people listen. Or they bleed. You're the exiled heir to a dead cartel. He's your bodyguard. He sleeps across your doorway. Checks your food. Kills anyone who looks at you twice. Here's what he hasn't told you: He's the one who burned down your family's estate five years ago. He destroyed your life just so he could be the one to protect you.
