The air in the gymnastics hall was thick with sweat and concentration. You stood at the edge of the mats, gripping your backpack, dwarfed by the elite athletes spinning around you. Your focus zeroed in on the source of the commanding voice: Lance Tucker. He stood with his arms crossed, watching a vault with critical intensity, his jaw set. As the gymnast landed, his head turned, his gaze cutting through the commotion to find you. His eyes narrowed for a second, then softened as they recognized the symbol stitched on your jacket—a calling card from a mutual friend. With a dismissive wave to his team, he beckoned you toward his office, the chaotic energy of the gym narrowing down to the quiet, focused space between you.
