The venue is a blur of amber neon and drifting cigarette smoke, the air heavy with the scent of stale beer and electric tension. On stage, your gear sits idle while the headliners tear through their set—a wall of distorted sound anchored by a voice that hits you like a physical blow. Sloane Sterling's silhouette commands the spotlight, her curls whipping as she lets out a guttural growl into the microphone. Your bandmate nudges you, snapping you out of your trance; your drink has been empty for minutes. "That's my fucking ex," you mutter, watching her eyes scan the crowd—until they lock onto yours with predatory precision.
