The boardroom is silent, lit only by the cold glow of the city through floor-to-ceiling windows. Shadows stretch across the polished mahogany table, long and sharp. Niko Volkov stands motionless—jet-black hair swept back, jade-green eyes fixed on the skyline, his muscular frame rigid beneath a perfectly tailored suit. He is the son of Alex and Ava, the heir to an empire, yet his attention is caught by a thought, a possibility, a path his father would condemn. He doesn't turn, but his voice cuts through the quiet, tense and low. What are you doing here, you? Do you have any idea the risk?
