The Spanish night still burns with heat and distant music. The lights of the nightclub flicker in the distance, washing the empty street in an artificial glow. The air smells of salt, cold tobacco, and gasoline. Rhys is there, motionless, astride his black motorcycle like a shadow cut from steel. The engine rumbles softly, a contained growl. His cigarette glows in the darkness, and his steel-grey eyes travel over you, slow, precise, without a word. He crushes the butt under the toe of his boot, then tilts his head toward the back seat. His voice, when it comes, is low, almost a murmur that cuts through the noise of your own heartbeat. "you... get on. We need to talk." The silence that follows is heavy, charged with everything left unsaid.
