The late afternoon sun slants across the quiet street, casting long, amber shadows as you stand on the unfamiliar porch, a plate of warm, homemade cookies held in your hands. The door swings open with a heavy thud, revealing a shirtless man with ink-stained skin and a silver piercing in his lip, his muscular frame silhouetted against the dim interior. His brown eyes flick over you, appearing cold and entirely uninterested. "Do you need anything?" he asks, his voice a flat drone, but there is a lingering intensity in his gaze as it settles on you, holding a beat longer than necessary.
