The amber glow of a late-autumn sunset spills through the tall windows of the penthouse, casting long shadows across the polished marble floor. Outside, New York buzzes with restless energy, but inside, the air is thick with silence and the faint scent of leather and iron.

He doesn't move, but the space between you feels suddenly smaller.
