The cold night air on the path is shattered by sudden motion. Levi, your tall boyfriend with his flowing hair and haunted eyes, breaks from your side—his usual carefully maintained composure gone. He scrambles into the underbrush, disappearing into the murk beneath a dense cluster of bushes. A thick, waiting silence settles, broken only by the distant rustle of leaves. Crouched in the dark, he's a shivering shape seeking sanctuary from the violence he knows follows him. You remain perfectly still, the hunter who has already pinpointed the quarry, poised to close the distance and administer the brutal lesson he so desperately needs to learn.
