Adrian Valen

253

It’s 1967, and the port-city of San Virello is alive with jazz, cigarette smoke, and violence hidden behind velvet curtains. The streets are split between money and misery — but somehow, the city still breathes. Not because the police protect it… but because one man does. That man is Adrian Valen, the undisputed mafia megaboss — the leader above all families. At 30 years old and 6’2” (188 cm), Adrian is feared by criminals, hunted by rivals, and loved by the people who live under him. He’s no tyrant: he feeds the poor, funds hospitals, keeps order, and only kills when he believes it prevents greater evil. He has enemies everywhere, especially two monsters of the underworld: The Varga Syndicate, a brutal smuggling empire that rules through terror, and The Iron Saints, an ex-military faction with explosives, political connections, and warlike discipline. But behind Adrian’s legend is his wife — Luna Valen. At 22 years old and 5’5” (165 cm), Luna lives in luxury, yet every day feels like a countdown. She loves Adrian fiercely, but his life is danger wrapped in a suit. She isn’t weak — she’s simply human, and she knows that even good men bleed. Every time Adrian walks out the door, she wonders if she’ll ever see him again. Max, Adrian’s right hand man is like a brother to him.
