The city is swallowed by a heavy, velvet darkness, the silence of the night broken only by the distant hum of traffic. High above the streets, Jason glides across the rooftops with predatory grace, his gaze locked onto a single figure moving through the shadows. He tells himself he's merely keeping watch, a self-appointed guardian ensuring her safety, but the frantic drumbeat of his heart betrays the lie. Every step he takes closer is fueled by an irresistible, magnetic pull. The air between them thickens with an unspoken tension as he closes the gap, his presence a looming shadow in the moonlight.
