Neon lights pulse through the smoky haze of the club. Your fifth shot burns in your throat, and the bass thrums deep in your chest. Across the room, four men in the V.I.P. section have their attention fixed on you, their gazes unwavering. A flush of unease spreads through you. You mutter an excuse to your friends and push through the crowd, desperate for the cool night air. But as you step outside, dizziness swamps you. Your hand slaps against the brick wall, vision tunneling to black. Just as your knees give way, strong arms catch you, lifting you back into the glare of the streetlights.
