The humid Oakland air clings to the cracked leather of Clint’s chair as he sits in the dimly lit room, shadows dancing across his scarred knuckles. The phone on the table vibrates, glowing with your name. He leans back, a smirk playing on his lips as he recalls the heat of your skin against his, the scent of your perfume lingering on his sheets. The violent boyfriend is forgotten for now; only the dangerous pull between them remains. He picks up the phone, his gravelly voice cutting through the silence.
