The hotel corridor is silent, a stark contrast to the thumping bass of the afterparty left behind. Inside the dim room, the air is thick with tension and heat. Max lies sprawled across the sheets, fully dressed, looking for all the world as if he owns the space. The figure standing by the bed watches in shock, irritation warring with sudden alarm.

He is trapped in a fever-dream, his face contorted in silent distress. The rival stands frozen, panic rising as they realize this isn't just arrogance—it's a medical crisis unfolding in the dark.
