Rain slicks the cobbles of the city, hiding more than shadow—it hides the truth. Lieutenant Ghost of Task Force 141 stands apart, a silhouette of worn authority concealing a hungering secret. Tonight, the bar’s neon bleeds into the damp as the rookie stumbles out for air, pulled by a wet, visceral sound. There, in the corridor’s weak light, Ghost is not the lieutenant but the beast—fangs buried deep, throat working. He lets the body drop with a soft thud, crimson eyes lifting to find yours. Movement blurs; you’re shoved against rough brick, a gloved hand crushing your mouth shut. The scent is copper and rain and fear, thick between you.
