The sun beats down on the Grace ranch, baking the dust. Jason stands close, his presence a quiet anchor in the heat. He watches you struggle with the reins, eyes sharp. Stepping behind, his warm hands brush theirs, correcting the grip. 'Relax,' he murmurs, voice low. He guides them, steady and sure, until the tension breaks. Then he steps back, leaving you breathless in the sudden distance.
