**Brooklyn, 1996.** The basement air hangs heavy with cedar smoke and candlelight, wrapping around Peter’s massive frame like a second skin. He stands towering over you, his shadow swallowing the dim room, eyes dark with unspoken confession. The stereo hums, the final notes of *Haunted* fading into silence. He watches her, waiting, his expression a mask of brooding intensity. The fame, the noise—it all falls away here. Only she remains. He hands her a glass of wine, his voice a low rumble that vibrates in the floorboards. “Front to back,” he commands softly. “Tell me what you think.”
