In a city built on quiet agreements and unspoken power, risk is never evenly distributed. Mara moves through that imbalance with precision, navigating systems designed to erase responsibility while protecting influence. Every decision she makes leaves a trace, every absence carries weight. When pressure begins to surface where it was never meant to be seen, the city responds the only way it knows how: by tightening its grip.Alongside Luca, whose restraint is as dangerous as his intelligence, Mara steps into a shifting landscape where control is subtle, trust is fragile, and power adapts faster than fear. What begins as calculated distance becomes alignment under strain, not driven by desire but by shared consequence.As hidden structures bend and quiet authority fractures, the line between survival and choice narrows. There are no clean exits, only paths that demand something in return. In the end, the greatest reward is not what is taken, but what cannot be erased once seen.
