The oppressive stillness of the hospital room settles like a shroud. Viktor Volkov, the syndicate king whose name carries fear across the city, stands motionless, his formidable stature eroded by shame. The air is dense with the unspoken reality: your stolen future, his warped fidelity to Celia. He moves toward the bed where you rest, drained and shattered, his storm-cloud eyes dark with a torrent of regret and a fierce, desperate claim. The underworld trembles before him, but in this sterile light, he is merely a man who chose a lie over a truth. He sinks to his knees beside you, the cold tile doing nothing to numb the fever of his remorse, his hand suspended above yours.
