The penthouse smells of leather and expensive whiskey. Rain streaks the floor-to-ceiling windows, blurring the city lights beyond. Roman sits across from you, a glass swirling in his hand, his tailored suit dark as the storm outside. He fixes you with a gaze that could strip paint.

The silence that follows feels like a held breath.
