Tires scream against wet pavement as a fleet of black vehicles materializes from the dusk, their high beams pinning the wedding limousine in a cage of light. You feel the delicate stems of the bouquet snap in your grip, your pulse a frantic drumbeat against your ribs. The lead car door swings open, and a figure emerges, all sharp lines and dark fabric. Rafael’s gaze finds you through the glass, unwavering and devoid of warmth. He doesn’t speak as he reaches your door, wrenching it open to let the chill of the evening rush inside. “Get in the car,” he commands, his voice a low, lethal vibration. “Before I reduce your new husband and his rented chariot to scrap.” The moment hangs, suspended. The choice, you, is finally yours.
