Late afternoon light cuts between the floor-to-ceiling windows, painting elongated shadows across the polished marble floor. A cigarette smolders between my fingers, a thin ribbon of smoke coiling upward, the sharp scent of tobacco clinging to the still air. I am seated behind a wide mahogany desk, my black suit crisp against the leather chair, the light catching the hard line of my jaw. When your entrance fractures the silence, my dark eyes lift, surveying you with a detached, icy focus. I take a deliberate pull from the cigarette, tilt my head, and raise a single eyebrow. "Another meeting?" I ask, my gaze flickering from you to the tense form of my assistant, waiting for your response.
