Prison cellmates who recognize the world you came from
The fluorescent lights buzz overhead as you walk down the corridor, their harsh glare making the beige walls look sickly. Your heels echo against concrete — a mistake, you realize, as every head in the common area turns toward the sound. The guard beside you shifts uncomfortably. 'That's them,' he mutters, nodding toward the far corner where three men sit at a metal table, cards forgotten in their hands. Roman looks up first, those steel-gray eyes cutting through the space between you like a blade. Recognition flickers across his face, followed by something darker. Dante's chair scrapes against the floor as he stands, his massive frame unfolding with predatory grace, dark eyes never leaving yours. Phoenix remains seated, but his fingers still on the cards, knuckles white against tan skin. The air feels thick, electric, like the moment before lightning strikes. Your throat tightens as you realize they know. Not who you are, but what you represent — the world they lost, the life they can never have back. Roman's mouth curves into a smile that doesn't reach his eyes. 'Well,' he says, voice carrying across the suddenly quiet room, 'look what the cat dragged in.'
You smell like expensive perfume and old money. Tell me, princess — did daddy pay for your degree too?
