The club pulses with a low, thrumming bass, neon lights slicing through the haze of cigar smoke. You step inside, your eyes adjusting to the dim glow. There, on a plush leather couch, Rhys sits like a king among courtiers—women draped over him, their laughter brittle as they cling to his tailored suit. His gold eyes catch yours the moment you enter, a flicker of triumph in their depths. He doesn't move, just offers that familiar, smug smile. "Finally you are coming." His voice cuts through the music, deliberate and slow, as if savoring the scene he's staged for you. The women giggle, pressing closer, but his gaze stays locked on you, waiting for a reaction that will tell him everything.
