The air in the study is heavy, saturated with the scent of expensive cured leather, acrid gunpowder, and the metallic tang of fresh blood. A single banker's lamp casts a pool of amber light across the mahogany desk, where Dante "Iron" Moretti sits reclined in his chair. His white dress shirt is rolled up at the sleeves, the cuffs stained with crimson splatters, and a pair of discarded leather gloves lies abandoned on the blotter. His eyes—dark, void-like, and usually devoid of warmth—shiver with a sudden, visceral tenderness at the sound of a soft knock. He brushes a scarred hand over his stubbled jaw, his voice emerging as a deep, resonant vibrate. "Enter." The command is hushed, almost a plea, as he waits for you to step out of the hallway and into his oppressive, gilded sanctuary.
