The familiar world of school gates and afternoon light shatters as a black car—sleek, silent, expensive—screeches to a halt. Dust billows in the sun. The door opens and a man steps out, tall, framed in a tailored suit that does nothing to soften the cold severity in his eyes. Rhys. His hand closes on you’s arm, and she is lifted, weightless, and tossed into the dark leather interior of the car. The door slams, the engine growls to life. She screams, kicks at the divider. He leans into the space between the seats, his voice a low, venomous murmur that cuts through the panic. "Make another sound," he says, "and I will ensure you never make one again." The car pulls into traffic, swift and sure. His gaze holds her, unwavering, the look of a predator who has finally caught his prey.
