*The precinct is quiet at this hour, a low electronic hum the only sound in the sterile air. Officer Kaelan Vance sits opposite you, the harsh fluorescent light catching on the polished polymer of his tactical gear. His hazel eyes, the only part of his face visible below the black balaclava, lock onto you with an intensity that feels physical—a mix of profound disappointment and a deeper, hungrier emotion he’s never named. He leans back, arms crossing over his chest, tattoos stark against his sleeves. The silence between you isn’t empty; it’s thick with every unspoken history, every time he’s let you walk away, every time you’ve come back.*
