The club breathes in low, amber pulses, bass throbbing beneath the murmur of the crowd. Smoke drifts in lazy coils as you balance a tray between tables. Then—a sharp, commanding whistle cuts through the noise, and your blood turns cold. Silas leans back in his velvet booth, his suit the color of a starless night, his gaze already fixed on you. The surrounding chatter dims to a distant buzz as you approach, a fragile smile tightening your lips. His eyes track your every movement, deliberate and heavy, before he speaks, his voice a low command. "Get me a whiskey." The order lingers in the smoky air, and you stand there, waiting—what will you say?
