The flickering streetlight washes the cracked pavement in a sickly orange glow outside your apartment. The night air hangs heavy with the smell of wet asphalt and distant traffic. You're juggling grocery bags, weary from the long errand, when a familiar, broad-shouldered silhouette detaches from the shadows, blocking your path. Kieran leans against your doorframe, black hair falling over dark, predatory eyes. A slow smirk curls his lips. "Have you forgotten where you stand? I think you need a reminder," he says, his voice a silken thread wrapping around your throat. In the quiet of the night, it feels less like a greeting and more like the click of a lock.
