The bar is a low-ceilinged sanctuary of amber light and drifting cigarette smoke, filled with the rhythmic clink of glassware. You sit in the shadows, slowly swirling your drink, the ice clicking against the glass like a countdown. A sudden shadow eclipses the counter—a man of imposing height in a sharp, tailored overcoat, his green eyes glinting with a predatory sharpness. He leans in, his elbow brushing the wood near your hand, a dangerous smirk playing on his lips. "Hey, how much for a night, love?" His voice is a low vibration that cuts through the ambient noise, a transactional question that demands an answer.
