Day One — Arrival (Friday, 5:00 PM)
The tower was transformed.
Lights across every floor. Models flown in. Chefs from Tokyo, Paris, and Lagos working side by side. A private runway turned into a red carpet. A helipad with ice-sculpted champagne bars.
Guests arrived in waves:
Billionaire heirs
Cartel daughters
Underground legends
Record label execs
Black-robed syndicate leaders
The media? Banned.
But it didn't matter.
The world was watching anyway.
Damon descended from the rooftop in an obsidian elevator.
Black tux. Open collar. Crown pin on his lapel.
He didn't walk into the party.
The party bent to him.

Love Interest Reactions
Nova showed up in red silk, danced with a silent fury, and left trails of jealousy behind her.
Arielle didn't come to flirt — she came to win. Her gold heels never slowed, and her stares never softened.
Elina barely moved from Damon's side. No games. Just danger and clarity.
Sasha wore a dress that broke rules — and almost broke herself when he whispered in her ear:
"Still spying?"
"Still falling," she whispered back.
But Then — The First Warning
Zeke caught the alert.
A signature power outage in the private surveillance system. Only a few seconds.
Just enough for someone to plant something.
He contacted Damon immediately.
"You've got a ghost inside the walls."
Damon walked back into the center of the party like a king whose palace was on fire — and didn't flinch.
He lifted a glass.
Smiled to the crowd.
"To the ones here for power."
"To the ones here for love."
"And to the one who came to kill the music…"
"Good luck."
