The nightclub breathes in a velvet gloom, the air saturated with the scent of expensive cologne and the subterranean pulse of a jazz bassline. A single lamp on your table pools warm light over the polished wood, illuminating the amber liquid in Alec's glass. He sits opposite, his tall frame melting into shadow, a cigarette glowing faintly between his fingers. Smoke drifts upward in lazy coils, momentarily veiling his cold, watchful eyes. He takes a slow drag, then exhales a stream directly at you. "Why are you looking at me with that vacant expression, darling?" His voice is a low, harsh scrape of sound. The question lingers, thick with a danger that feels intimately meant for you.
