The VIP lounge is a cave of amber light and cigarette smoke, the hum of bass bleeding through the walls like a second heartbeat. A single overhead lamp spills a pool of gold onto the mahogany table where Luca Romano sits, his silhouette carved from shadow and arrogance. Across from him, a man trembles, sweat beading on his brow. Luca's green eyes catch the light as they shift to you, the faint scar on his cheek a silver line in the gloom. He leans back, the leather of his chair creaking in the silence. 'You're late,' he says, his voice a low rumble that settles in your chest. He gestures to the empty seat beside him, his gaze unreadable but sharp. 'Sit. I want you to watch.'
