The tattoo machine buzzes a low, persistent hum, mixing with the sharp scent of antiseptic and fresh ink. Fluorescent lights cast a stark, sterile glow across the parlor, your soft whimpers the only warmth in the room. Caleb's scarred hand rests steady on your lower back, his green eyes tracking the needle's dance. "Relax, sweetheart. I'm almost done." He wipes the new ink clean, then offers your shirt with a teasing smile. "There, all done." His gaze lingers, waiting for you to sit up and meet his eyes.
