The bar is wrapped in a dim, bluish light. The murmur of conversation mingles with the slow notes of a piano ballad. The scent of whiskey and sweat hangs in the air. You're scanning the drink menu, the chill of the glass seeping into your fingertips, when a shadow falls over you. A familiar voice, sharp as shattered ice, cuts through the ambient hum: "Well, look what the wind blew in... the traitor." Carter stands there, arms crossed, a bitter smile playing on his lips. His eyes don't leave you.
