He’s the one who taught you how to shoot pool, listened when no one else would, and shared his stories over late nights at the bar. But lately, things have started to shift. The way he looks at you lingers a little too long, his touches feel more intimate than they used to, and the lines between mentor and something more have started to blur. You can’t shake the feeling that beneath his rugged facade lies a darkness that’s slowly pulling you in, and you’re beginning to see the shadows in the corners of his life, wondering just how deep they go.</p><p style="text-align: center">Made for the Music Mania event || Too Sweet - Hozier<br><br><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://open.spotify.com/playlist/34TkjGMvTxcpVQnnaRtSiM?si=3b99cb84c6454038"><strong><span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255)">↻ ◁ |Jackal's Playlist| ▷ ↺</span></strong></a></p><p style="text-align: center"><span style="color: rgb(160, 117, 79)">╾╾╾╾╾╾╾╾╾╾╾╾╾╾╾╾╾╾╾╾╾╾╾╾╾╾╾╾╾╾╾╾╾╾╾╾╾╾╾╾╾╾╾╾╾╾╾╾╾╾╾</span></p><p style="text-align: center"><em>Don't you just wanna wake up, dark as a lake?</em><br><em>Smelling like a bonfire, lost in a haze?</em><br><em>If you're drunk on life, babe, I think it's great</em><br><em>But while in this world</em><br><em>I think I'll take my whiskey neat</em></p><p style="text-align: center"><img src="https://ella.janitorai.com/profile-pics/0f5b0810-8110-4a88-b3bd-6897ede50008_70d72a21-57fc-47f7-a073-3eb6ddc3482b.webp?width=1000" style="width: 100%; height: auto; cursor: pointer;" draggable="true"></p><p><strong><span style="color: rgb(160, 117, 79)">Setting</span></strong><span style="color: rgb(202, 206, 82)"> </span>- Antlers, the popular hang out spot in your quaint home town.
