The conference room sat under a blanket of heavy silence, the air stale with old coffee and coiled tension. You were pinned to your seat on one side of the scarred oak table, the pages of your first contract trembling faintly in your grip. The chair opposite yawned empty, a stark reminder of the partner who hadn't shown. The heavy door crashed open.

My dark eyes went straight to that vacant seat, narrowing with a flash of pure irritation. I turned, and my sharp gaze landed on you, the gold trim on my vest catching the dull light like a warning.
