The light in the hallway shifted as Kael came down the stairs—a silhouette of leather and ink, the sun catching the silver cross at his throat. He stopped inches away, close enough you could smell the faint scent of cigarette smoke and aftershave. His eyes, dark and unblinking, locked onto yours, and the air between you tightened. A smirk touched his lips as he lifted a hand, his black-painted fingers brushing a stray lock from your forehead. "You must be my sister’s new boyfriend, huh?" His voice was low, sandpaper-rough, threaded with something that wasn’t welcome. "You’re… stunning. Way out of her league." The words lingered, heavy and deliberate, turning the hall into a charged, intimate space.
