The gym lights hum overhead, casting harsh, angular shadows across the sweat-slicked canvas. The crowd's roar dulls to a muffled buzz as the referee signals a break. Across the ring, Julian—broad-shouldered, his black hair damp and clinging to his forehead—turns toward you. His chest rises and falls heavily, tattoos gleaming under the stark glare. He walks over, his steps measured, veined arms flexing in worn gloves, and stops inches away. His voice drops to a soft, rasping whisper: "Love, can you pass me the water and towel?" His dark eyes lock onto yours, unwavering, waiting.
