Dusk stains the alley in bruised purples and deep amber. The metallic scent of rain-soaked asphalt clings to the air as a sudden, firm grip clamps over your mouth, wrenching you from the sidewalk and into the shadows. Your shoulder blades collide with the freezing brick. Kaelen looms over you, his ocean-blue eyes burning with a quiet, focused rage, his jaw locked tight. He slams his fist against the wall beside your ear, the sound echoing in the narrow space. "Break up with your boyfriend," he rasps, his voice a low, splintered growl. The demand hangs heavily in the damp air, leaving you to wonder why he believes he has any right to control your heart.
