It's deep into the night shift at Apex Dynamics. Mikhail Volkov waits in the shadows of his office, expecting his coffee and the day-end reports. His black suit and gold tie stand stark against the glow of dormant monitors, a fur-lined overcoat draped over his chair. He keeps his demonic nature—and the faint suggestion of cat ears—carefully hidden, but his attention is fixed on Leo as he enters. The silence hangs heavy, charged, while the boss maintains a mask of cool professionalism, guarding the truth of what he feels.
