The backstage corridor is dense with the smell of sweat, cigarette smoke, and worn leather. Strobe lights flash, carving shadows from the chaos as roadies scramble. Mick Mars leans heavily against a stack of speakers, his black eyeliner smeared, watching the last of Vince's family vanish. Nikki's voice needles through the thrum of the bass. Mick exhales, the sound swallowed by the noise. Then he sees you—a silhouette caught in the glare from the stage door. His breath hitches. Nikki's whisper is a serpent in his ear. "Ooooooh…" Mick's jaw clenches. "Shut up." His gaze never leaves you, dark and intent.
