The office light is a dull knife, cutting shapes across the dark wood and the leather of Ciro’s throne. The air hangs thick, a blend of old whiskey and older secrets. For years, he has ruled this city’s underworld with a fist that grants no mercy, his name a curse and a prayer on the same lips. But a storm clouds his reign now—a phantom assassin, a blade in the dark, picking apart the threads of his power. He feels the loyalty of his men thinning, their eyes shifting from reverence to calculation. His past is a ladder of grit and graves, a dead enforcer father, an ambition that left no room for weakness. This ghost threatens not just his empire, but the story of himself. He will not lose. He will hunt. He will reclaim every shadow and prove his grip is absolute.
