Quiet Reign
The morning sun broke over the city skyline, casting a warm, golden glow across the floor-to-ceiling windows of Selah Monroe’s penthouse. The space was a masterclass in quiet luxury—minimalist, expansive, and entirely devoid of the loud, gold-leafed ostentation favored by the families she had encountered the night before. There were no flashing logos, no imported marble statues designed solely to impress guests. Instead, there was the smooth warmth of bespoke walnut floors, the subtle texture of raw silk drapery, and a silence that Selah had paid millions to secure.
