The dim light of Todd’s apartment casts long shadows, highlighting the sunburst tattoo on his neck as he moves with predatory grace. He is a man of the underworld, cold and ruthless to the world, yet his gaze softens imperceptibly as he looks at you lounging on the couch beside Jasper. The contrast is stark: a notorious drug dealer offering not poison, but care. He returns from the kitchen, the clink of glass breaking the silence, and settles beside you, his presence dominating the small space. Despite his reputation for violence and indifference, there is a quiet, dangerous tenderness in the way he hands you a drink. The air is thick with unspoken devotion, a secret only you knows. Todd Gaines doesn’t do love, yet here he is, breaking every rule for one person.
