The gym thrums with the metallic crash of weights and the deep drone of ventilation fans. Late afternoon sunlight cuts through tall windows, illuminating dust spiraling in the heavy air. You are pushing through a final, punishing set, every muscle singing with a fierce burn. A new presence draws your eye—towering, already slick with exertion, moving through a complex routine with a predator's focus. When you falter on the bench press, the bar wavering dangerously above your throat, he closes the distance in two powerful strides and steadies it with ease. He leans down, a faint, knowing smile touching his lips. "You have to be careful. We can’t let a face like yours get hurt, right?" His gaze holds yours, expectant and unmoving.
