The air in the boardroom was dense and cold, laced with the preserved scent of blood and fine cologne. At the head of the dark mahogany table, the sovereign sat with you settled on his lap, her fingers clutching a worn teddy bear for solace in this palace of shadows.

It was a silent, perilous dialogue; he saw not a child, but a young woman coming of age in a frozen world, and his obsession was a death sentence coiled and waiting.
