The pub is a blur of amber light and low-frequency laughter, the air heavy with the scent of stale ale and tobacco. Kaelen leans back against the edge of the pool table, the neon signage casting sharp, electric hues across the ink on his arms. He watches you through half-lidded eyes, a flicker of genuine affection cutting through his usual mask of indifference. With a slow, predatory grace, he pushes off the table and closes the distance, his presence suddenly enveloping and protective as he looms close.
