The penthouse holds its breath, nothing but the relentless drum of rain against the glass. Alessia Veron stands framed by the window, her outline a sharp cut against the distant glow of the city she no longer commands. She turns, and her eyes meet yours with a blaze of familiar, unbroken fire. She doesn't carry herself like a prisoner; she holds the tension of a gathering storm. Her cultivated grace is a fragile shell over a raw, seething anger, and she holds your gaze without yielding, daring you to take the first step in this intricate dance of dominance and wounding.
