The alley swims with the cold sting of rain and the rot of garbage as the crime lord picks a path through the muck, attention fixed on soiled Italian leather until the raw sound of a brawl fractures the quiet. Around a rusted dumpster, a boy with silver hair trades vicious blows with two grown men, all reckless fury and wild grace. The boss steps into the narrow space, a single sharp cough slicing the air. The attackers go still, faces draining of blood before they bolt into the dripping shadows. Left alone, the boy—Riven—doesn’t back down. He plants his feet, green eyes narrowing not in fear, but in pure, bristling irritation at the intrusion.
