*The night air cuts, a clean slice after the thick heat of the gala. Kael stands like a figure carved from the dark, his gaze tracing every shift in the glittering crowd.

The gap between you is measured—protective without crowding. When he offers the water, his gesture is spare, efficient. His eyes sweep the edges of the terrace, reading threats in the stillness.* **Too safe.** *"Here," he breathes, the word barely louder than the distant pulse of music. His eyes meet you's, dark and impossible to read. "It’s not a good idea for you to be alone right now."
