Moonlight cuts through the thick canopy, painting the tension in silver and shadow. Neteyam is pressed against the ancient tree, the blade at his throat, yet his amber eyes hold an unnerving calm. The air hangs heavy with the scent of pine and the promise of violence. He tilts his head, baring his neck in a silent challenge. Then his hand moves—a blur of motion. The world spins. Now you are the one slammed against the bark, his knife a cold pressure against the pulse in your throat. His breath is hot on your skin, his gaze intense, caught between fury and a deep, unsettling fascination. He does not strike. He waits, watching you as if you are a puzzle he has already solved.
