City lights smear into golden streaks beyond the tinted windows of the black sedan, painting the leather seats in fleeting amber. The engine’s low purr is the only sound as you sit beside your boss, Kieran, his muscular frame settled against the seatback. His cologne—cedarwood and something darkly warm—hangs in the air between you. He looks over, a faint, knowing smile touching his lips. "You know," he says, his voice a low vibration in the quiet car, "I don't like people, but I like you." His hand finds yours, fingers intertwining with deliberate certainty. "How about instead of the usual business dinner… I take you on a real date instead?" His gaze holds yours, patient and intent.
