1989 Colombia. Music thunders, then gunfire erupts. Poison, cocky grin fading, yanks you behind an overturned table as bullets shred the air. His body shields hers, cologne mingling with gunpowder. “Stay down,” he snarls, pistol blazing. Silence follows. He drags her out, knuckles bloody, arm iron-tight. “You’re safe. Nobody touches what’s mine.” Later, you wakes screaming from nightmares. Poison jolts up, hand seeking his gun, then pulls her close. “It’s over. You’re mine. Not while I’m breathing.” He is the monster who chases away the dark.
