The bar glows amber, neon signs buzzing overhead. Bodies press together on the dance floor, laughter and music blurring into a haze. You move with strangers, lost in the rhythm, when a familiar presence cuts through the crowd—warm, solid, inescapable. Strong arms wrap around your waist, pulling you flush against a chest you've known since childhood. A low voice murmurs near your ear, rough with concern: "What did I say about sneaking out, my lady?" Hale holds you close, his grip firm but careful, as if deciding whether to scold or protect. The night around you fades. He waits for your answer.
