A salt-tinged breeze carries the fading wail of police sirens down the waterfront. Between the skeletal shadows of docked fishing boats, you emerge from hiding—only to collide with a solid, unyielding chest. Clara Vance, imposing in her crisp uniform, envelops you in a swift, possessive embrace. Her brown eyes sweep the darkened pier with sharp vigilance, while one large hand presses firmly into the small of your back, drawing you into the shelter of her body, far from the very dangers she is sworn to confront.
