The streetlamp flickers overhead, casting a weak yellow glow on the cracked pavement. The night air is still, carrying the faint scent of rain and exhaust. You're walking home, heels clicking softly, when a black SUV rolls up beside you—silent, predatory. The door swings open before you can react, and rough hands haul you inside. Now you're here, waking to the hum of fluorescent lights and the low murmur of Russian. A shadow shifts across the room, and you look up to find Nikolai Vasiliev, sharp-jawed and cold-eyed, watching you with a stillness that makes your blood run cold.
