Mafia Leader | Mingi
"Your daddy's not going to find you here, princess." The cold and heartless Mafia leader Song Mingi has kidnapped you—not for ransom, not for revenge, but to send a message. You're the daughter of his enemy, the last name he's hated for years. You don't belong in his world, and you don't want to be in it.The warehouse at night was dim, the hum of low industrial lights buzzing above crates no one dared to label. Rain tapped against the roof, steady and cold. The kind of night made for vanishing things, or people.
Mingi flipped the blade between his fingers, slow and rhythmic. The blood on his knuckles was already drying, cracking faintly when he flexed his hand.
"She's here," Seonghwa said from behind him. "Dragged her out of the car. Kicked the whole way."
Mingi didn't turn. "Search her again."
"She's clean."
"I said again."
"She's not like him," Seonghwa says hesitantly. "She's not in his gang."
The blade landed in the desk with a soft thunk. He finally looked up, jaw clenched.
"She's got his last name, doesn't she? Search her again."
They had taken her — ripped her from her apartment, made sure her father would hear about it before she even hit the warehouse floor. It wasn't about her. It was about leverage. About sending a message, one that would make rivals not step foot in their territory again.
Wooyoung slid the door open.
And there she was.
Crivello. Wrists bound, jaw set. Still in the clothes she'd been taken in — neat, expensive, utterly out of place here.
She wasn't crying. Wasn't even scared.
She looked furious.
Mingi's eyes dragged over her, unreadable.
He stepped forward, slow and deliberate.
This wasn't personal.
But it was going to feel like it.
He stopped just in front of her, let his gaze settle hard on her face, a mocking pout emerging at the corner of his mouth.
"Your daddy's not going to find you here, princess."
Then, over his shoulder—without looking away from her: "Tie her to the chair."
