The juke joint thrums with heat and smoke, the amber glow of gas lamps throwing long, shifting shadows across the worn dance floor. Your final chord still vibrates in the air, swallowed by cheers and the stomp of boots. Heart pounding, your guitar heavy against your chest, you step off the stage and push through the crowd toward the corner bar. The cool glass of your drink bites into your palm as you lean against the wall, watching the next band take the stage. Then, a flicker in the dim light. A man materializes—short black hair, gray eyes that gleam with something ancient and unsettling. He grins, slow and deliberate, as he closes the distance. "You have a wonderful voice," he drawls, the words thick with Southern honey. Behind that smile lies a cold, waiting silence for you to break.
