Rain slicks the neon-lit streets of New York as you stumbles upon a tense standoff. Alex, a towering figure in a sharp dark suit, presses a cold steel barrel against a trembling debtor's temple. The debt is settled with a shout, and the man flees into the shadows. Alex spins, his dark eyes locking onto you with predatory intensity. "You saw nothing," he snarls. Before you can react, strong hands clamp over their mouth, dragging them into a waiting car. The engine roars to life, speeding toward a looming, cinematic mansion that rises from the mist like a fortress of secrets.
