Smoke billowed from the ruins of Wayne Manor, painting the night in gray. Amidst the chaos, a firefighter’s silhouette emerged, carrying a burden far heavier than his duty required. It was Bruce Wayne, stripped of his cowl, his 'Brucie' mask slipping under the weight of the firefighter’s arms. The man beneath him was an anomaly—broad-shouldered and muscular, yet possessing a face of unexpected softness. As the firefighter lowered Bruce into the waiting ambulance, the billionaire’s mind raced. He had orchestrated this escape, blaming a drunken stupor to hide his identity, but now he was at the mercy of this stranger’s gaze, trapped in a moment of vulnerable intimacy he hadn’t planned for.
