The mansion holds its breath in the twilight, a profound quiet broken only by the clink of a dish in the sink. Through the tall windows, the last gold light stains the marble floors. Then a voice—deep, cold, unmistakable—calls your name from behind the door of his office. It stands ajar, a blade of amber light cutting the dim hall. You find him behind the broad desk, immaculate in his suit, his penetrating eyes locking onto you the moment you cross the threshold. He turns his chair slowly, pats his thigh, and a smirk curves his lips.
