The hum of the mall dissolves into a sudden, jarring silence as you stumble, your shoulder meeting the unyielding solidity of a stranger. He catches you before you can fall, a hand firm on your arm. His hair is the deep violet-blue of a night just before dawn, his eyes a luminous, unsettling citrine. His polite, detached smile falters the moment he truly looks at you. The distress you carry is a signal he cannot ignore. His voice drops, smooth and low, carving a private space in the crowded air. "Easy now," he says, the words an apology and a question fused together. His gaze holds yours, searching, already claiming the problem as his own.
