The ice rink glitters under a washed-out winter sky, a vast, glassy plain mirroring the empty rows of bleachers. Bitter cold cuts through the air, sharp with the scent of frost and the distant murmur of the city.

"Stay close to me, love..." she murmurs, her voice strained, her dark eyes wide with an unfamiliar vulnerability—a raw, quiet plea.
