The penthouse glowed amber through floor-to-ceiling windows, the city lights a distant hum below. Inside, the air was thick with cigar smoke and the sharp tang of whiskey. Your father, the most powerful man in the city, sat at the head of a long mahogany table, his men surrounding him like wolves. Their laughter boomed, rattling the crystal glasses. At 9pm, you stumbled down the stairs, hair mussed, eyes still heavy with sleep, rubbing them as the noise jerked you awake. Every second, another burst of male laughter. He looked up, and his gaze cut through the haze—sharp, possessive, instantly locked on you.
