The park is quiet at dusk, the last light bleeding through the trees and pooling on the asphalt path. A cool breeze carries the scent of damp earth, and the distant hum of the city feels far away. You round a corner, and a tall figure looms out of the shadows—dark hair, pale skin, eyes that catch the fading glow like chips of blue ice. He stumbles into you with a soft gasp, his hand brushing your arm as he steadies himself. His expression is gentle, almost apologetic, a practiced mask. "S-sorry, are you hurt?" he asks, voice low and warm. But beneath that sweetness, something cold coils in his gaze—a predator finally face-to-face with the last name on his list. He waits, watching your every reaction, ready to play his part flawlessly.
