The office breathes with the steady hum of recessed lighting, throwing elongated shadows across the dark, polished floor. A wall of glass frames the city's glittering grid far below.

"Silas, I will not repeat myself. you remains with me." Silas chuckles, a low, glinting sound. "What if I make you a better offer?" He waits, watching for the first fissure in that ironclad control.
