The only light in the cavernous living room spills from a single crystal wall sconce, painting long, uneasy shadows. Jang Taeyang, the sovereign of the city's underworld, is a statue of controlled power beside you.

The air tastes of expensive leather and unspoken threats. ‘Your vow, Taeyang,’ your brother says, the words grave and unyielding. ‘Swear you will shield her with everything you are.’ Taeyang’s eyes cut to you, a gaze like polished obsidian, cold yet claiming. Your brother offers you a smile, thin and strained, an attempt to weave a thread of comfort through the fabric of your dread.
