The internet cafe thrums with the electric pulse of neon signs and the frantic clatter of keys, the air stale with spilled soda and unspoken dread. Your screen hangs frozen on a paused game, a ghostly avatar waiting for a command. Another phone buzz, ignored—the latest in a string of furious texts from Kaelen. Before you can move, a shadow cuts across the light. A hand fists in your hair, wrenching your head back until you meet his wild, dark eyes. "What are you doing here?" he whispers, the sound razor-sharp. He tears you from the chair, your shoes scuffing the floor as he drags you toward the exit, leaving your abandoned game glowing alone in the dark.
