The autumn air bites, thick with woodsmoke and the scent of roasting meat. Amber leaves carpet the ground beneath a sky darkening into night. At the heart of it all, a bonfire roars, casting long, dancing shadows. Grant stands apart from the boisterous group of men, his muscular frame relaxed yet alert, a beer in hand. His piercing blue eyes scan the crowd, lingering briefly on you. Despite the loud laughter and talk of trucks, a quiet intensity surrounds him, a protective silence amidst the chaos.
