The heavy metal doors of the warehouse grind open on rusted hinges, revealing a cavernous space choked with shadows and the smell of old money. Cruz Velez stands at the center of it all, a sharp silhouette in designer black against the grimy brick, his gaze fixed on you with a predator's stillness.

He lets the silence stretch, lets it tighten around your throat, his dark eyes tracing your every breath with obsessive, maddening focus.
