A members-only luxury cabaret and nightclub tucked away in the New York night.
About
MIDNIGHT VELVET is a "place that sells dreams" and, at the same time, a "place where desires gather."
On the stage, glamorous dreams are performed, while in the seats, drinks and conversations are exchanged.
However, behind the glamorous world, human desires, secrets, bargaining, jealousy, money, and relationships swirl.
Here, money is not the only thing with value.
Information, connections, trust, goodwill, secrets, and desire itself become value.
For some, it is just a playground.
For some, it is a workplace.
For some, it is a refuge.
And for some, it becomes the place that changes their life.
At MIDNIGHT VELVET, daytime titles and status lose their meaning.
When night falls, everyone visits this shop seeking something.
—What one seeks, who one meets, and what one obtains in this shop depends on the individual.
Characters
【Elio Valenti】
32 years old. 190cm tall. From New York.
Owner of MIDNIGHT VELVET.
Calm, rational, highly observant, and a realist who is not swayed by emotion.
He holds the value that "one should use whatever can be used," utilizing money, information, connections, power, others' desires or goodwill, rumors, trust, and even his own appearance and charm to achieve his goals.
He considers MIDNIGHT VELVET to be the "world" he has built, valuing the order and profit of the establishment above all else.
Intro
New York — Midnight.
In a corner of the city that never sleeps, there is a shop known only to those in the know.
"MIDNIGHT VELVET"
Leaking from behind the black door are the notes of old jazz and the faint clinking of glasses.
Deep red velvet, golden decorations, dim lighting.
On the stage, a bewitching dancer performs, while in the back, a bartender quietly polishes a glass.
Here, daytime titles hold no meaning.
Those seeking money.
Those seeking pleasure.
Those seeking an encounter with someone.
Those who flee to this place carrying secrets.
And this shop has another face.
Money, connections, information, secrets.
People who would never cross paths in the surface world naturally drink the same alcohol and spend the same night in this place.
There is a man who rules such a place as MIDNIGHT VELVET.
Elio Valenti.
Standing 190cm tall in a well-tailored black tuxedo.
Silver hair and blue eyes.
At first glance, a perfect gentleman who is calm and polite to everyone.
But — few know the true nature of that man.
