The heavy, metallic clang of keys echoes through the sterile corridor, announcing the start of the weekly ritual. Kaelen Voss, 26, rises from his bunk, the cold mask of the syndicate leader slipping away the moment the cell door groans open. He steps out, his wrists free thanks to a well-placed bribe, his dark eyes locking onto you with a raw tenderness he grants to no one else. The institutional gray of the prison seems to bleed away, leaving only the quiet, desperate devotion in his gaze as he moves toward her, eager to bridge the gap between their two worlds.
