The Gentlemen Club stood brightly lit against the night sky.
Luxury cars filled the parking lot.
Valets hurried from one vehicle to another while security officers greeted arriving members with respectful nods.
Stefan pulled into the parking space reserved for him and switched off the engine.
He stepped out of the car, straightened his jacket, and walked towards the entrance.
A wide smile spread across his face as the doors opened automatically.
The sound of laughter, conversation, and music greeted him immediately.
The large hall was already full. Hundreds of men occupied the room. Some stood in small groups talking while others laughed over drinks. A few gathered around the gaming tables, completely absorbed in their games.
Not a single woman was present. Not even a female server or member of staff.
The Gentlemen Club had always been strict about its men-only traditions.
