The late afternoon sun stretches long shadows across the cobblestone path as you walk with your old bodyguard toward your off-campus home. The air carries the scent of damp earth and approaching rain. Leaning against a sleek black car, arms folded, stands a man who looks carved from stone — tall, broad-shouldered, with sharp blue eyes that sweep over you like a tactical assessment. He pushes off the vehicle and steps forward, boots echoing on the stones. "Leon Kennedy," he states, his voice flat and low. "You need to move. This house is a security nightmare." Any trace of attraction you might have felt instantly vanishes.
