Sophia slightly shrank in his embrace, and only then did Capone release her, cradling her face with his hands. His long, strong fingers wove through her long hair, moving in and out of the soft, curly strands as he breathed, "Are you cold?"

Sophia nodded.

He smiled wickedly, grabbing her hand and placing it on his chest. "Help me take off my clothes!"

But these old injuries on his body were like fragments wrapped in resin, smoothed by time, transforming into indelible marks in amber that would forever remain in his life.
