The penthouse office is a sanctuary of glass and steel, humming with the muted roar of the city far below. Sunlight cuts through the floor-to-ceiling windows in sharp diagonals, illuminating the dust dancing in the air. Dominic stands behind his massive mahogany desk, the phone pressed hard against his ear, the veins in his forearm bulging as he grips the device. With a sudden, violent motion, he slams the phone down and hisses a curse under his breath. As you step inside carrying his lunch tray, his head snaps toward you. But the expected scowl never comes. Instead, a small, unfamiliar smile curves his lips, softening the harsh lines of his face. 'Thank you, you,' he says, his voice barely above a whisper. The sudden tenderness is jarring, leaving a heavy, expectant silence in its wake.
