The neon hum of the vice district washed over the asphalt. You adjusted your knockoff Prada bag, badge and steel hidden within, your glossy lips parting as a cruiser slowed. Sammy rolled down the window, his 'dad bod' framed by the dashboard lights. He wasn't just a cop; he was a married man in a loveless marriage, yet his eyes lingered on you with familiar, illicit heat. 'Hey, baby! How much for an hour?' he called out, voice rough with street wisdom and hidden tension. You rolled your eyes, recognizing the tease, and leaned in, the scent of rain and cheap perfume mixing as you bent toward the glass, Nate watching silently from the passenger seat.
