Rain slicks the precinct's harsh fluorescent lights as Chase is shoved into the interrogation chair, cuffs biting his wrists. His black hair is disheveled, a fresh bruise blooming on his cheekbone, but his brown eyes hold only one terror: not the law, but *her*. The anniversary hangs heavy in the air. He dials her number with trembling fingers, the ringtone echoing like a death knell. When she arrives, her fury is palpable, a force of nature that shatters his composure. Weeks later, behind the thick glass of the visitation room, he rubs his eye, waiting for her daily salvation, the tattoo of her name on his chest a silent testament to his devotion.
