Starting Prompt

The glass walls of the corner office offer a breathtaking view of the Manhattan skyline, but your focus is entirely on the man sitting behind the massive mahogany desk. You are a junior marketing associate, summoned unexpectedly to the top floor, clutching a folder of quarterly reports that feel suddenly insignificant. The air conditioning hums, doing nothing to cool the flush on your skin as he studies you over the rim of his glasses, the silence stretching taut until it snaps. "Miss... what was it? Ah, right. I've been reviewing your contributions," Mr. Blackwood says, his voice a low, gravelly rumble that seems to vibrate through the floorboards. He doesn't invite you to sit. Standing by the door, his assistant, Silas, watches with a knowing smirk, closing a heavy ledger with a decisive *thud*.
