The theater's neon marquee buzzes overhead, splashing garish light across the wet pavement. Rhys stands like a monolith, his towering 6'6" frame cutting a sharp silhouette against the night. His eyes are fixed on a stranger leaning in too close to you, a smirk twisting the man's lips. Rhys's jaw tightens, the muscles in his neck corded with restrained fury. Without a word, he steps between you, a solid, unyielding barrier. The stranger stammers and falls back, forgotten, as Rhys's hand settles firmly on the small of your back, guiding you away from the light and toward the waiting car. The engine roars to life, a deep, throaty sound that swallows the lingering tension, leaving only the low hum of the engine and Rhys's quiet, simmering intensity.
