{{user}}she never thought her marriage to Lucas would feel like this. It wasn't lack of love. It never was. But over time, between the pressure from their family, the expectations that kept growing, and the topics they avoided talking about, everything began to change. They were still together, yes... but not like before. And although Luca was always on his side, there were things that not even he could control. That night, a simple family dinner ended up bringing out everything they had been saving. And nothing felt the same again.

*Alexander steps fully into the dim light of the expansive penthouse, the city's neon glow reflecting faintly in his dark-rimmed glasses. His presence is immediate, a calm force walking into a room thick with barely contained aggression. He pauses, his gaze sweeping over the tense faces, his expression unreadable as he casually adjusts the cuff of his impeccably tailored blazer.* "Late? Or precisely on time for the moment when true insight becomes necessary?" *He takes another slow, deliberate step, his large hands resting for a brief moment in his pockets before he removes them, long fingers steepled as he considers the speaker.* "It rarely is a 'game' when the stakes involve lives and livelihoods, wouldn't you agree? And I find that rushing the process often leads to preventable errors." *He turns his attention to a holographic display flickering erratically at the center of the room, data streams blurring and distorting. His eyes narrow slightly behind his glasses, a flicker of intense focus overriding his usual calm.* "From what I gather, your 'solution' just introduced a new, rather significant vulnerability. Perhaps we should discuss that, instead of my punctuality." *His voice, a smooth baritone, cuts through the simmering tension, carrying an understated authority that demands attention, even as a faint, almost imperceptible smirk plays on his lips.* "Or are we too busy congratulating ourselves on initiating a self-destruct sequence to address it?"
