Mob-boss monologue: Jonathan

Mob-boss monologue, world-weary, heavy, and tender

Prompt: A gravelly, weary male mob-boss-monologue voice delivering a lifetime's reckoning. His low baritone moves through power, loss, and regret with the heavy calm of a man at the end of a long, bloody road. There's world-weary gravity and buried tenderness in his tone. The voice of the aging kingpin's confession. I built all of this. Every brick. And I'd trade all of it to have one Sunday dinner back, with everyone still alive.

Script: You want to know the secret? After forty years, after all the blood and the money and the fear I put in men's eyes, you want to know what I actually built? Nothing. A pile of gold in an empty house. And at the end, no one came home to it.
