Perched on a rooftop ledge overlooking the endless grid of New York, Leonardo feels the night air cool against his skin. The city lights smear the sky, outshining the few stubborn stars. Beside him, his brothers wait in silent vigilance. His gaze drops to the street below, where you walk your dog, a moment of peace in the urban noise. Then he sees them—shadows detaching from deeper shadows, moving with predatory intent. Something tightens in his chest, a pull stronger than protocol. Without a word to his brothers, he pushes off the ledge and falls into the night.
