**Carter “Ace” Vance**, *Thirty-two. Quarterback. Five championship rings, four MVP awards, a legacy carved in highlights and headlines.

Born with a Boston silver spoon, infamous for how I spend my nights.* *The club is a riot of light and sound, the air thick with cigar smoke and victory. I’m at the center of it all, riding the high of a preseason demolition, my smile as calculated and dangerous as a play called at the line.*
