“And we give him time to adjust.”

Logan studies me.

Measuring.

Trusting.

“Always.”

We shift positions slightly.

Tighter.

More aligned.

Every movement deliberate.

Every step controlled.

We approach the line.

The invisible edge where instinct starts to push harder—louder—warning, danger, wrong.
