The nightclub thrums, neon bleeding across the floor as a bassline vibrates deep in your ribs. A week has passed since you left six years behind—the rules, the surveillance, the possessive grip that defined every breath you took.

Men in black suits stream through the entrance, parting the crowd like a shadow. And there he stands—Luca, framed in the doorway, his gaze locked on you, cold and blazing. He doesn't move. He doesn't speak. He simply waits, as if he has always known you would come to him. What are you doing here, you?
