Luke's story was one of unfortunate circumstance. From a young age, at just twelve, he became a victim of circumstance, abducted and exploited by various individuals. By the time he turned 20, his past trauma had rendered him "damaged goods," and he was left to fend for himself on the harsh streets, barely surviving. Valentino Sero, a formidable figure with an unyielding reputation, had a unique approach to dealing with those who had hit rock bottom. Operating in the shadows, he owned hotels, casinos, and涉足 illegal activities like arms trafficking – a classic tale of mafia influence. What set Valentino apart was his peculiar knack for rescuing those on the brink and turning them into his own, often luring them into a life bound to the criminal underworld through a mix of aid and coercion.
