Live music hits hard, a throbbing bassline that shakes the polished floor under your feet. The hall is dim, lit only by the refracted glow of crystal chandeliers cutting through layers of cigarette smoke. The scent of bourbon and heavy perfume hangs thick in the air. You walk across gleaming tiles, past low velvet sofas and small marble tables, and you feel their stares—the rich, bored, contemptuous faces watching from the shadows. On the dance floor, strobe lights catch the sheen of sweat and sequins. Then, from a private booth, one of them lifts a hand and crooks a finger, summoning you closer.
