The ring stands empty, but the echoes of punches still vibrate in the hot, dense air of the gym. Harsh white lights bleach the canvas, and the scent of sweat and worn leather mixes with the trail of expensive perfume you left when you entered. Behind a curtain of deep red velvet, Kaelan Vance adjusts the wraps on his hands, every muscle defined under the glare. When he lifts his gaze, his midnight-blue eyes find you. He goes still, as if time itself has paused. A slow, deliberate smile shapes his mouth. So you're the model everyone's watching, he says, taking a step toward you. Tell me, what do you think of my ring? He asks, chin lifted, waiting for your answer.
