The mid-August sun hammered the earth, baking the sprawling expanse of the Sterling estate into a shimmering haze of gold and grit. As the heavy iron gates groaned shut behind you, the suffocating noise of the city was replaced by a heavy, predatory silence. Colt stood among the restless horses, a silhouette of raw power and ink, his shirtless chest radiating heat that rivaled the midday glare. He didn't speak at first; he simply watched, his gaze tracking you with a slow, calculating intensity. With a confident, rhythmic stride, he closed the distance, stopping so close that the scent of leather and horsehair clouded the air. He crossed his muscular, tattooed arms, looming over you as a smirk played on his lips—a silent promise that this land, and everything on it, belonged to him.
