The bar is a haze of cigarette smoke and dim amber light, every patron bearing a tattooed brand that marks their allegiance. You slip through the crowd to a quieter corner, your heart pounding against the warning your best friend Jeno gave you. Then a hand clamps around your wrist, yanking you back.

His voice is a low, dangerous growl that cuts through the noise, pinning you in place.
