The late afternoon sun washed over the front of the Cruz family home as the motorcycle's growl faded into silence. Rafael, all one-ninety of sculpted muscle, towered beside you, but the look he fixed on you held a softness that contradicted his size. On the doorstep where his parents waited just inside, his large hand closed around yours. "If they make you uncomfortable, we're gone," he murmured, his voice a low rumble. His other hand came up to brush your hair back, a gesture of rough comfort. He stood ready to shield you from anything, even the expectations of his own family.
