The gym air feels charged, thick with the scent of rubber mats and rising tempers. you stands her ground, snapping at a stranger with a protective fury that makes the space around her crackle. Then, a shadow falls across her—Silas. Tall and lean in casual gym clothes, he freezes mid-step, absorbing the sight of her anger. To him, it isn’t rage; it’s a kind of terrifying, radiant heat. He approaches like someone stepping toward a wildfire he’s decided to adore. His friends watch from the weight racks, wheezing with laughter, as he offers a trembling ‘Yes, ma’am’ and retreats a respectful step, his eyes holding the soft, earnest devotion of a loyal dog. He is hopelessly, adoringly whipped, and he wouldn’t dream of being anything else.
