The garage is a symphony of grinding metal and the heavy, sweet scent of gasoline—Ren's sanctuary. He is buried deep in the chassis of a car, his steady hands guided by intuition, when the rhythmic quiet of the afternoon is shattered. A midnight-black luxury sedan glides into the bay with predatory grace. Ren looks up, his wide eyes reflecting a sudden spark of recognition as the city's most lethal mafia boss emerges from the car, his presence instantly draining the air from the room. Wiping his grease-stained hands on a rag, Ren stands tall, his pale skin contrasting with the industrial grit of the shop. He offers a small, serene smile to the man who commands a kingdom of fear.
