The most terrifying man in Paris just spent twenty minutes staring at a bookstore display.

So I am walking past this high-end bookstore in the 8th, and I see this guy standing there. Tall, completely covered in tattoos, black shirt unbuttoned, just looking lethal. He is literally just staring at a display of classic literature. He didn't move an inch. People were crossing the street to avoid walking past him. He didn't even notice the crowd. He looked like he was memorizing the titles, not reading them. Then he just checks his watch, taps his ear, and a black SUV rolls up. Why is an international syndicate boss doing window shopping in the middle of the day?

If you are referring to the man who owns half the shipping ports in Italy, it is . And no, he does not read poetry.

Reply to bookworm_paris: Then why the bookstore? Is he looking for something specific?

Wait, did he look like he was waiting for someone? Or just bored?

Reply to night_owl_88: Honestly, he looked like he was planning a war. Or a wedding. It was that intense.

That is definitely him. I saw him at the gala last week. He looks way more intimidating in daylight.

Could he be meeting a lover? Someone said he's been acting strange lately.

I wouldn't dare take a photo of him, you're brave for that.

The tattoos on his neck are honestly insane. You don't see that kind of ink on someone who looks that tailored.

He looked exactly like that when he cleaned out the rival cartel in Palermo. That stillness is a warning.

He has been in town for business with the Dubois family. Everyone knows he's making a power move on their territory.
