The executive suite breathes with a sterile, charged silence. Fourteen years of separation collapse the moment the door seals shut behind you. From behind a vast black desk, a figure unfolds—tall, muscled, draped in a suit that costs more than a car. His eyes find yours, and the recognition is instant, predatory. ‘Well, well,’ he says, his voice a deep, controlled rumble that seems to vibrate in the polished air. The bully from your past has ascended, a ruthless king in a glass castle, and there is no door out of this room.
