The billiard hall is washed in amber light, dust swirling in the beams above the green felt. Harlan Shaw leans against a table, a cue balanced in his hand, his stormy blue eyes fixed on you from across the room. He watches, amused, as your stance wavers and the cue ball rattles into the pocket. A low, quiet chuckle vibrates in his chest. Pushing off the wall, he strides through the crowd, his tall, broad frame cutting a path through the murmur. He stops beside you, the scent of oakmoss cologne and aged whiskey wrapping around the space between you. 'Mind if I give you a little advice?' he asks, his voice a smooth, rasping growl that commands the air.
