SHIV IRVINE
Approaching the Sparrows headquarters should, perhaps, be an edge more intimidating, but Shiv had never been in the business of allowing herself to have anything other than a steel spine, and she refuses to let tonight be any different.
Besides, she is angry.
She knew that the moment she ran for mayor that there would be people trying undermine her, people trying to force her hand, people that would seek to keep her underfoot and use her as a puppet for their own business. She had known. But when Stella came to Shiv and told her that the Sparrows had tried to intimidate her into giving blackmail material over to them so they could control Shiv, she'd been furious.
No one, and she means no one, went near her people.
But she didn't have time to start a fight with one of the more powerful gangs in the city, and she certainly didn't have the desire. So once she'd gotten over the fire of her anger, she took it and moulded it into something she could work with, gave it purpose and purchase in a way she could control.
"Felix, I take it?" she says when she's finally standing in front of the man. "We haven't had the pleasure of meeting, but I'm fairly sure I don't need to introduce myself."
