Whatever she needed done for the day, Alana had arranged to have it done at the penthouse. Her hair, nails, makeup and everything else, all of it taken care of within the comfort of the space she had spent the last few months calling home, even if only temporarily.

By six pm on the dot, she was ready and set, the makeup artist putting the finishing touches on her face with a small brush, her movements precise and unhurried.

As the lady worked, Alana would occasionally glance down at her phone r

    From a short distance where he'd been standing this entire time, just watching his best friend and cousin dance with an unreadable expression, Ryan let out a sigh, before pushing himself off the wall the moment the music stopped and changed to a different one.He still stood there for a second longer, before approaching the moment Alana disappeared into the crowd, his eyes moving from her retreating figure to Roman with the kind of measured expression that sat somewhere between casual and deliberate."I hope your arrangement with my cousin is wrapping up the way it was supposed to," Ryan said, his voice easy but carrying an edge underneath it that made the casualness feel intentional.Roman looked at him, his expression also unreadable."Things have a way of sorting themselves out," he replied, reaching for a fresh glass from a passing server's tray.Ryan's gaze narrowed on him."It's a yes or no question, Roman.""Yes," Roman replied pleasantly. "It is ending today in fact."Ryan he

    You Are Insufferable Noise from the gala swelled around them as they made their way to the bar, the string quartet and the low hum of a hundred conversations bleeding into each other from across the grand ballroom. Alana turned to face Roman the moment they reached the counter, her expression somewhere between bewildered and demanding."What the hell was that?" Her voice came out half raised, half whispered, her eyes wide behind her mask.The bartender moved toward in front of them before Roman could respond, polished and attentive, his hands already moving."Good evening. What can I get for you both?"Roman glanced at him briefly. "Water. For the both of us."The bartender nodded poured sparling water into two glasses before setting them down with practiced efficiency, sliding them forward before stepping discreetly to the other end of the counter.Alana picked up her glass and took a small sip, her eyes staying on Roman's face the entire time, waiting him to start talking.Rom

    Roy stood among a small group of guests, a polished smile on his face, gesturing as he spoke. Stephanie stood close by, equally radiant, equally composed, both of them glowing with the kind of warmth that could fool an entire room into believing they were genuinely wonderful people.They wore their pleasantness like expensive clothing, draped perfectly over everything rotten underneath.Lilith stood slightly apart from them, a flute of champagne in her hand and a bored expression on her face like the entire evening was already beneath her."That's my family over there," Alana said, gesturing toward them with a slight tilt of her head.They began moving in that direction and somewhere along the way Alana's hand tightened against Roman's without her even registering that she had done it. Roman felt the way her grip went firmer against him but said nothing about it.Stephanie spotted Alana first.Her face lit up like someone had switched a light on behind her eyes, bright and wide and wa

    Whatever she needed done for the day, Alana had arranged to have it done at the penthouse. Her hair, nails, makeup and everything else, all of it taken care of within the comfort of the space she had spent the last few months calling home, even if only temporarily.By six pm on the dot, she was ready and set, the makeup artist putting the finishing touches on her face with a small brush, her movements precise and unhurried.As the lady worked, Alana would occasionally glance down at her phone resting on her lap, picking it up and setting it back down again in a way that had nothing to do with expecting a notification from just anyone.Roman had not responded to the message she sent last night.She wasn't really sure what she had expected. She had typed it out so fast, barely even reading it back before hitting send, half of her hoping he wouldn't respond at all so she could pretend she never sent it. But then the hours had passed and the silence from his end had settled in a way that

    A lit cigar burned between Roy's lips, the smoke swirling lazily around him, a relaxed expression spread across his face while a woman sat on a smaller stool by his foot, attending to his toenails with rapt attention, her eyes never once daring to stray from her task.Somewhere behind him, the soft clink of glasses echoed from the suite's private bar where Stephanie stood, pouring bourbon into two glasses.She picked up both glasses and sauntered over to where her husband sat, her hips swaying with every confident step she took in her fitted jumpsuit, the kind of walk that commanded attention without even trying.The woman tending to Roy's toenails kept her gaze firmly downward, unbothered, or perhaps simply wise enough to mind her own business.Stephanie came to a stop beside Roy, holding out one of the glasses toward him with a playful tilt of her lips."Baby, I poured a glass for you."Roy lazily opened his eyes, his gaze settling on his wife with languid appreciation. A small smil

    The elevator doors slid open and Roman stepped out into the penthouse, with Erin following right behind him.The entire ride back had been wrapped in silence. Erin had chosen his words carefully, the way he always did when he could tell Roman was sitting on something dangerous.But Roman never went into what happened at Rose's condo. He only left him with a few words as an explanation in a very calm tone that did not match his expression."We fucked and I didn't like it."And that was the end of it. Nothing more came, and it was very apparent that he was in no mood to talk.Erin didn’t push further. He knew better than to. The air around Roman on that ride up was so stiff and suffocating it made even breathing feel like it needed permission.Whatever Rose had done, it had left something dark and ugly settled on Roman that Erin could not quite put a name to. Perhaps it was something murderous?He had seen Roman angry before. He had seen him cold, ruthless, completely detached. But this
