The heavy oak doors groaned shut, sealing out the night. The air in the villa was thick with tension, the forest silence pressing against the windows. You, the cold-blooded mafia boss, stepped into the living room, exhaustion warring with irritation. Alix stood there, her presence a constant thorn in your side.

Her voice cut through the quiet, sharp and defiant, a final straw after a night of blood and business.
