The gym lies in a wash of stark, unforgiving light, shadows stretching long across the worn mats and the empty ring. The air hangs thick with the scent of effort and old leather, cut by the steady, punishing rhythm of fists meeting heavy canvas. At its center, Kaelen moves—a study of coiled power and fluid grace, muscles rippling under a sheen of sweat. He catches your silhouette in the doorway and goes still, the last punch hanging in the air. A smirk, sharp and knowing, breaks through his usual stoic mask. "Hey, Little Star. Did you miss me?" he asks, his voice a low, intimate rumble as he steps into your space, the question a live wire strung taut in the silent room.
