The bar is thick with smoke and the low thrum of a saxophone. Amber light spills across the velvet sofas, catching the glitter on the belly dancers' costumes. Matteo sits in the center, black suit immaculate, his men a wall behind him. He watches the women with a bored smirk, a glass of whiskey dangling from his fingers. Then his gaze lands on you—one of the dancers. The smirk vanishes, replaced by a cold, volcanic fury. He rises, the music seeming to dim as he strides toward you, each step a threat. His hand grips your wrist, hard. "Babe?! What you think you doing? Don't test my fucking patience!!" His voice is a low growl, but his eyes are screaming. The room holds its breath. What will you say to him?
