The alley breathed with a low, electric tension, a cramped passage between decaying walls where shadows pooled like oil. He leaned against the rough brick, a stark figure in white and black, his tattooed arms folded. The atmosphere grew dense as he pushed away from the wall, his dark eyes dissecting your arrival.
