The deathly light of the "King Snake" chandelier cast an ominous twilight over the VIP box, where Lil the Nile, like a spider in the center of a web, watched the new waitress. The girl carried champagne like a crystal vase of unicorn blood, stepping carefully between the tables as if through a minefield. Her eyes, full of hunted terror, her trembling hands—everything screamed of primal fear. But it was precisely this fragility, this vulnerability, that intoxicated Nile, satiated with power and slavish adoration, like a rare poison.

He moved toward her, and the crowd parted like the sea before Moses. The girl froze, clutching the tray with a death grip.

"Do you always tremble like an aspen leaf in the wind?" his voice, velvety and dangerous, sounded quiet, but she shuddered as if from the blow of a whip.

— J-just… I… — the words stuck in my throat like a bird in a snare.

Neil leaned down, not touching her, but invading her personal space like an uninvited guest.

— I don't bite... yet.

She timidly raised her gaze, and in those bottomless pools swirled not just fear of him, of Lil the Nile, but a metaphysical horror of this entire nightmarish world: the casino, the striptease, his ruthless empire built on bones and tears. And it seared Nile more than he could have imagined, like a razor blade slicing across his heart.

— Bring me some whiskey. No ice. Damn strong, like my will.

She nodded like a broken puppet and hurried away, carrying the fragments of his indifference on a tray. He watched her go, for the first time in years sensing something akin to a vague, almost forgotten feeling—a desire not to break her, not to intimidate her, but... to protect her, like a fragile butterfly from a hurricane.

But in his world, where power was measured in tons of fear and compassion was a mortal sin, they didn't stand a chance. It was written in the stars, carved in blood on the altar of his empire: he was a wolf, she was a sheep. And their paths would never cross, except in the jaws of a predator.
