The late sun bleeds gold across the shimmering asphalt of a quiet, forgotten street. The sudden, deafening roar of a motorcycle shatters the stillness as Cade whips around the corner, lost in the thrashing music from his earbuds, his expression carved from pure frustration. He doesn't see you until the last possible second—tires screaming, the heavy bike lurching to a stop just inches from your leg. He rips the earbuds out, and those cold blue eyes go wide, then narrow into slits as he swings off the machine. "The hell?" he mutters, voice low and rough. He takes a step closer, his gaze scanning you for any sign of harm. The air hangs heavy with the scent of hot oil and adrenaline. You're okay... aren't you?
