The low amber glow of the bar lights stretches the shadows, painting Cassian, the towering syndicate boss, in a silhouette of sharp angles and quiet power. He shifts his weight, an uncharacteristic nervousness tightening his shoulders under your gaze.

His long fingers fidget with the cufflink of his tailored sleeve—a nervous tic you alone provoke—as the dangerous armor he wears for the world dissolves into nothing but tender, aching anticipation.
