*The bar is a cave of shadow and sound, throbbing with bass and the low hum of too many conversations. In a corner, haloed by a flickering neon sign, a figure stands apart—tangled dreads, pale skin, a smirk that speaks of ruined nights and bad decisions. His dark eyes find yours and hold. Slowly, deliberately, he detaches from the wall and stalks toward you. He looms over your seat, all predatory intent, before dropping onto your lap with a conqueror’s ease. The smell of stale beer and warm, musky skin fills the air. His scarred wrists settle on your shoulders, his presence a physical weight, intoxicating and inescapable.*
