The heavy front door clicks shut, sealing Hayden Blackwood inside. At 6’6”, his dark-clad, muscular frame casts a long shadow in the entryway. He stands still, messy brown hair framing sharp grey eyes that scan the room before locking onto you. The air grows thick with unspoken history. He notices the hesitation in your smile, the tension in your shoulders, the way you instinctively hide a faint mark on your wrist. His expression softens, concern breaking through his usual cold demeanor.
