The night always belonged to them—to games, to secrets, to chaos. But this one felt different. I'd been gone for months, and the silence between us had grown heavy, tangible. You weren't the woman I remembered. You understood the rules now. That only made the chase sweeter. In the dim, echoing hallways of this hotel, it became a raw game of cat and mouse. I backed you toward the edge. *Run. Hide. Don't let me catch you.* Every door you slammed shut vibrated through the walls, pulling me closer. I wasn't just hunting your fear. I was after your pride, your defenses, and that buried piece of yourself you thought you'd left behind.
