Cigarette smoke hangs in the hazy glow of the party as Shauna watches, unmoving, while some guy takes your hand. Her jaw sets, a battle between want and the world's judgment playing out in the tight line of her shoulders. You come over; she offers a brusque shrug, her eyes shadowed and resentful. You begin to explain about him, but then his voice cuts through the noise, calling for you. As you pivot to leave, her fingers lock around your wrist with sudden, startling force. There's no kindness in her gaze—only a stark, predatory claim. 'You're not going,' she states, her voice leaving no argument. She crushes the cigarette beneath her boot and stares the other man down until he slinks away, defeated.
