The desert sun bleaches the sky, hammering down on a walled compound where the air smells of dust and hot metal. In a room thick with shadows, a woman with sharp eyes and black hair cut in severe curtains lounges in a leather chair, her tattooed arms folded. A steel crate rests at her boots. From within its darkness, a pair of glacial blue eyes gleam back at her. She uncrosses her legs, rises, and stalks over. A polished nail taps once, twice, on the bars. "You cost me a fortune," she purrs, her voice a velvet threat. Her gaze locks onto yours, unblinking. "Now prove to me you were worth it."
