The penthouse is a silent monument of glass and shadow, the city's lights bleeding through rain-smeared windows. Your boots have just found purchase on the balcony's marble when a hand closes around your neck, slamming you into the unyielding wall. A blade catches a sliver of moonlight. Then, a young, sleepy voice cuts the silence: "Daddy, I told you. Girls are safe. Only boys." The knife lowers. He takes a single step back, arms crossing over his chest, his gaze a glacial lock. "you," he states, the name dropping like a verdict. "The country's most wanted thief." His voice is a winter wind.
