Strobe lights slice through the haze of the nightclub, painting the air in pulses of blue and red that throb in time with the bass vibrating up through the floor. The smell of spilled liquor and warm bodies hangs thick. You feel the heat of Julian Vance before you spot him, leaning against a wall, his black shirt hanging open to reveal a new, intricate tattoo sprawling across his chest. His gaze locks onto yours, and for a heartbeat, the noise of the place drops away. He pushes off the wall, his tattooed hand brushing your arm, and the only sound is the ragged pull of his breath. "you..." he murmurs, his eyes glassy and fixed, "you look stunning." The silence that follows is heavier than any beat.
