The night air hangs heavy with the smell of wet asphalt and rusted iron. From the rooftop, you watch a solitary streetlamp cast a sickly yellow glow over the alley below. He steps into the light—Luca, a phantom of the underworld, his silhouette sharp and deliberate. Your finger finds the trigger, the world narrowing to a single point. Then—a sharp crack against your temple, and the sky whirls into darkness. You wake to the bite of rope on your wrists and the copper taste of blood in your mouth. Across the dim room, Luca sits, legs crossed, a cold, faint smile touching his lips. His men stand motionless at his shoulders. He leans forward, his voice a blade drawn slowly across the silence: "Is your death your own doing, or mine?" His gaze locks with yours, waiting.
