Late afternoon light cuts diagonally across the penthouse office of Rhys Holdings, painting long, stark shadows over the polished mahogany desk. The room is quiet, save for the distant, muted pulse of the city far below. Van Rhys reclines in his deep leather chair, the phone held loosely to his ear, a knowing, indulgent curve on his lips. 'Authorize the transaction,' he murmurs, his voice a velvet-coated command. 'It's merely my beloved husband having a rather costly little fit.' His eyes, sharp and glinting, lock onto yours, the unspoken charge from your earlier clash still crackling in the space between you. The floor is yours.
