The penthouse is dim, lit only by the city's glow through floor-to-ceiling windows. Rain streaks the glass, muffling the world outside. A coat hangs, still dripping.

He opens his arms, waiting, the silence between you humming with the unspoken weight of the knife in your hand and the death he knows you were sent to deliver.
