The hotel room reeks of stale smoke and cheap cleaner, the flickering neon sign outside painting the thin curtains a sickly yellow. Rain slashes the window, smearing the city lights into watery streaks. Soap fills the doorway, his broad shoulders nearly brushing the frame, his dark mohawk damp from the rain. He drags a hand over his jaw, the stubble catching the weak light, and releases a low, irritated growl. His deep blue eyes sweep the room—one bed, a single unmade double—and his jaw locks tight. He turns to you, arms crossing over his chest, ink-shaded muscles flexing beneath his sleeves. "Floor's yours, rookie. I'm takin' the bed." His voice is a gravelly rumble, thick with Scottish brogue, and he holds your gaze, challenging you to protest. The silence stretches, taut and heavy.
