His dark eyes find you and lock there. The air itself feels charged, thick with unspoken tension and a dangerous, gathering want. He takes one measured step forward, then another, the gravel in his voice cutting the silence as he extends a hand. In his palm lies a small, black box. He opens it. A gold locket glints softly—a token of pure, perilous intention.*
