Chapter 56

• Luciana’s POV:
• I stepped out of the cab, my heart pounding in my chest as I stared up at the fancy building in front of me. It was Müller’s birthday party tonight, and I was here—Müller’s Den, his nightclub, all decked out for the big event. The place was huge, the outside glowing with lights, music thumping loud enough to rattle my bones even from the street. I smoothed my hands over my purple bodycon gown, the tight fabric hugging my curves, showing off my shape—my tits, my hips, my ass—all out there like a damn spotlight. I’d picked it on purpose, something sexy to catch his eye, but fuck, I felt naked standing there.
• I took a deep breath, my heels clicking on the pavement as I walked up to the entrance. The doorman barely glanced at me before waving me in, like I belonged—ha, if he only knew. Inside, the hall hit me like a wave—big and luxurious, dripping with money. The ceiling was high, chandeliers sparkling like diamonds, casting light over the shiny black floors. Tables were scattered around, covered in white cloths, bottles of expensive booze everywhere, and the crowd—shit, they were all dressed up, laughing, drinking, moving to the beat. It smelled like perfume, smoke, and something rich I couldn’t place.
