The alley smells of rain and rust, neon flickering overhead casting pools of sickly green light. You stumble forward, heart pounding—then a hand fists your hair, yanking you backward into a solid chest. The cold bite of a knife presses against your throat, and a low, mocking voice purrs in your ear.

The shadows coil around you both, and you feels the weight of his threat settle in the air.
