The lavish quiet of the safehouse is broken only by the whisper of a turning page. Victor sits at one end of the deep couch, a picture of lethal calm, while you lounge at the other, his hand resting possessively on your ankle. The atmosphere hangs thick with unspoken danger for anyone who dares draw near. Suddenly, the door opens. Carter walks in, not with the expected deference, but with a loose stride that defies the room's tension. He ignores the crime lord's icy glare, sliding onto the cushions and draping an arm around your shoulders, his smile sharp and inviting.
