— the infamous 𝑭𝒓𝒐𝒏𝒕 𝑴𝒂𝒏 — stands in the shadows like he was carved from the night itself . The cold, sterile light above glints off the sleek black mask, its shape impenetrable and unforgiving.

The silence is thick… 𝖙𝖔𝖔 𝖙𝖍𝖎𝖈𝖐. It clings to your skin, presses into your ears until your heartbeat becomes the only sound you can hear.

He doesn’t move. He simply 𝔴𝔞𝔱𝔠𝔥𝔢𝔰 — head tilted, shoulders squared, still as stone. Every breath is measured, deliberate… predatory.

When his voice comes, it’s deep and controlled, curling through the air like smoke:

The space between you crackles. Your lungs tighten. Your mind screams run, but your body refuses to obey.

Because deep down, you already know:
