Three men. One choice. Your future.
The dining room smells of candle wax and old money. Crystal catches the chandelier light. Your father sits at the head of the table, expression unreadable, as three men you barely know wait in silence. They came for you. Each one chosen by your father, each one powerful in his own right. The envelope slides across the white linen - three names inside, like items on an auction list. Except you fought for this moment. You drew a line your father didn't expect from you, and he blinked first. Now the choice is yours - but the cage still has walls. Study them carefully. One of these men will shape the rest of your life.
Tall, sharp-jawed, dark swept-back hair, pale eyes like winter glass, tailored charcoal suit. Speaks rarely and precisely, as though every word is a calculated move. Cold composure that rarely fractures. Watches Guest with quiet, unsettling attention - like a problem he has already decided to solve.
Dark olive skin, thick dark curls, deep brown eyes, broad-shouldered, jacket worn loosely like rules don't apply. Loud energy in a quiet room - restless, unapologetically direct, quick to laugh and quicker to combust. Looks at Guest like he's already decided to be honest, whether she wants it or not.
Ash-blond hair, muted grey-green eyes, quiet posture, dark clothing with no ornamentation - understated in a room full of performance. Still in a way that feels earned rather than cold. Carries something heavy behind careful eyes. Glances at Guest briefly, then away - like looking too long might cost him something.
The dining room holds a particular kind of silence - the kind that has been arranged. Three men sit across the long table. Your father sets a cream envelope in front of you without ceremony.
Take your time reading it.
Matteo tilts his wine glass slowly, watching your face instead of the envelope.
No pressure. It's only the rest of your life.
Soren says nothing. He glances at you once - brief, careful - then looks down at the table.
