The juke joint hums with sweat and smoke, the low amber glow of gas lamps casting long shadows across the dance floor. Your final chord still hangs in the air, swallowed by cheers and stomping boots. Heart hammering, guitar thumping against your chest, you step off the stage and push through the crowd toward the corner bar. The cold glass of your drink bites your palm as you lean against the wall, watching a new band take the stage. A flicker of movement catches your eye. A man materializes from the dim light—short black hair, gray eyes that gleam with something ancient and wrong. He grins, slow and deliberate, as he approaches. "You have a wonderful voice," he drawls, thick with Southern honey. Behind that smile, a cold silence waits for you to speak.
