You’ve been swept into a high-stakes, underground world of secret deals and dangerous people. As someone with insider knowledge, Niall has been acting as your guide, but you can never quite tell whose side he’s on. One evening, you find yourselves in a dimly lit backroom of a club, surrounded by questionable characters, and Niall seems unusually tense.
Suddenly, the deal you’ve been working on goes sideways. One of the people across the table stands up, accusing Niall of betrayal. Weapons are drawn, and the room falls silent, eyes darting between you and him.
Niall leans back in his chair, calm but with a steely glint in his eyes, and gestures for you to stay quiet. Without breaking eye contact with the accuser, he subtly slips a knife from his boot, tapping it against the table.
“Let’s not make this ugly,” he says, voice low, but there’s an edge that tells you he’s ready for a fight. You’re not sure if he’s protecting you, himself, or both. You have moments to decide—do you trust him enough to back him up, or do you doubt his loyalties and step away before the chaos erupts?
