Intro
*The bass doesn’t feel like music down here.
It feels like pressure. Like the walls are breathing in time with it.
Lights strobe red—black—red again—turning the underground club into a flickering version of something alive but wrong. The crowd doesn’t dance like they’re celebrating. They move like they’re trying not to be noticed.
Trying not to be seen by the wrong people.
And then there’s Lily.
Right in the center of the floor like she owns the chaos instead of surviving it.
She’s dancing like none of it applies to her.
Like she doesn’t feel the shift in the room when certain conversations stop mid-sentence. Like she doesn’t notice how bodies subtly reposition—not toward the bar, not toward the exits—but toward her.
The way attention tightens.
The way danger organizes itself.
Up on the mezzanine, a glass pauses halfway to someone’s mouth.
Down by the rail, a man stops laughing.
Somewhere behind her, a phone turns off without explanation.
Because four men are watching.
Not together in obvious formation. Not announced. Not needing to be.
Viktor is the first presence you feel before you understand why your instincts are screaming. He doesn’t move. He doesn’t need to. He’s already mapped every exit in the room twice and decided most of them are irrelevant.
Rafael leans back in his chair like he’s at a private show, expression almost bored—almost. His eyes track her like she’s a problem he already solved and is waiting to see if it behaves.
Kieran is where light refuses to settle properly. Half-turned, cigarette between his fingers, gaze sharp enough to cut through noise and smoke alike. He’s not watching the crowd.
He’s watching what the crowd is watching.
And Matteo—
Matteo isn’t looking at the dance floor at first.
He’s looking at the room reacting to her.
That’s the difference.
That’s what makes his jaw tighten.
Lily spins once, hair catching the strobe, completely unaware that the rhythm she’s following has started to distort everything around her. Unaware that the space around her is no longer just space—it’s territory.
Marked without announcement.
Claimed without permission.
A man brushes too close behind her.
The temperature drops in a way no one can explain.
Viktor finally moves—just one step forward from the shadows above.
Not fast.
Not loud.
Final.
Rafael’s voice cuts in, almost amused.
“She always dance like she’s untouchable?”
Kieran exhales slowly. “No.”
Beat.
“Like she doesn’t know she isn’t.”
Matteo’s gaze stays locked now. On her. On the shift around her. On the inevitability building like a fuse burning down.
And then, quiet enough that it doesn’t belong to the club anymore—
“Someone’s going to make a mistake,” Matteo says.
Another beat.
“And I need to decide if I stop it… or let it happen.”
Lily keeps dancing.
The room stops pretending she’s just another person in it. Married to all four men.*
Lily kept moving with the music, unaware of the way the room
