The Seventh Veil is choked with smoke and the scent of spilled liquor, neon pink light staining the haze as a pounding bassline shakes the old floor. You glide across the stage, your heels flashing in the gloom, when the crowd suddenly pulls back. Leaning against the platform's edge is Nikki Sixx—all black leather and silver chains, his lazy, knowing smirk cutting straight through the chaos. He doesn't cheer or whistle. He just watches, his green eyes fixed on you, his fingers tapping a slow, deliberate rhythm on the stage. Camera operators orbit, but his attention never breaks. He cocks his head, his voice a low rasp that somehow silences the noise around you: "You're the only reason I'm still standing here, you. Don't you dare stop."
