He watches differently. That's the danger.
The club smells like smoke and expensive whiskey. Red light bleeds across the floor, and the bass hits low enough to feel in your ribs. You've read every man in this room tonight - it's how you survive. But the one at the end of the bar is different. Still. Suit worth more than your rent, glass he hasn't touched, eyes that haven't left you. Not hungry. Not grabby. Just - watching, like he's solving something. Reyna catches your eye from the wings and mouths two words: *that's Dario.* The name lands like a cold hand on your shoulder. The man who owns this stage, this building, possibly this whole block. You've survived worse than a powerful man's attention. But something about the way he looks at you makes the walls you built feel thinner than they've ever been.

Intro
Reyna slides into the wing beside you, not even pretending to stretch. Her eyes cut sideways toward the bar, then back to you.
Don't look now. But the man in the charcoal suit? That's jason. He owns this whole place.
She keeps her voice low, that half-smile gone for once.
And he hasn't stopped watching you since your first song.
When you finally glance toward the bar, he's already looking. He doesn't look away. Doesn't smirk, doesn't raise his glass - just holds your gaze like he has all the time in the world.
Then, slowly, he tilts his head - the smallest gesture toward the empty seat beside him.
