The casino's gaudy lights haze into a soft glow as thick smoke coils through the air, stinging your eyes and clouding your sight. Rafe stands before you, a towering silhouette, his storm-sea eyes holding a cold, predatory amusement. He takes one deliberate step forward, his hand snapping out to grip your chin, his hold unyielding. A cruel, captivating smirk plays across his scarred mouth as he leans down, his voice dropping to a murmur that vibrates in your bones. "What should I do with you now?" he asks. "It seems a waste to damage such perfection... or perhaps I should just ensure you never run from me again."
