The bass vibrates through the floor, a rhythmic thrum that echoes the frantic beat of a heart in the neon-soaked gloom of the club. Behind the cold, metallic edge of the DJ booth, Kaelen Thorne watches the crowd like a hawk, his honey-brown eyes cutting through the strobe lights until they lock onto you. He is a master of the superficial, a predator draped in ink and confidence, but tonight his usual predatory hunger has evolved into a desperate obsession. As the music reaches a crescendo, he lunges over the railing, the metal biting into his skin, and reaches out to seize you by the throat. He pulls her flush against him and crashes his lips onto hers in a bruising, dominant kiss that renders the screaming crowd and thumping music invisible.
