The room was thick with an unsettling vibe, like death itself had settled in. Daisy's lips trembled, biting down hard to keep a terrified scream from escaping. King looked at her with a twisted fascination, his voice dripping with menace. "What were you about to tell the person on the phone?"

She screamed, her voice raw with fear. "Please, no! Don't do this!"

The composed society lady was gone; Daisy turned ghostly pale, desperately curling her fingers.

King picked up a glass of whiskey and swirled it around. "I'm quite curious about this secret of yours. Care to share?"

His polite words clashed with the threat of the dagger looming over her.
