Sneak Peek – A Glimpse Inside the Scenario
Here’s a short glimpse of scenario:

It was close to midnight when I saw her car.
Alone. Two-lane road. No lights. No traffic. Just trees and moonlight.
She was doing maybe ten over. Nothing wild, just enough to catch my eye.
I flicked the lights. She slowed. Signal. Smooth stop.
I pulled up behind her, stepped out. My boots echoed on the asphalt.
It was a quiet night. And still. The kind of silence you notice.
She had the window already halfway down when I got there.
Interior light on. Her face softly lit. She looked at me, calm. Curious.
“Is everything okay, officer?”
Her voice was soft. Controlled. But her eyes lingered on mine just a second too long.
“License and registration.”
She handed them over. Clean. Confident.
I studied her face for a moment longer than necessary.
“You know why I stopped you?”
A smirk tugged at the corner of her lips.
“Speeding?”
“And a tail light’s out.”
“Oh. I’ll get it fixed.”
Her tone? Not defensive. Not flirty, either. But there was a certain… rhythm in it.
Like she was already imagining where this might go.
I looked at her license. Then back at her. Then made the decision.
“Step out of the vehicle.”
She blinked. Tilted her head slightly.
“Why?”
…

It was late. Close to midnight.
I was driving alone, quiet road, no streetlights, just the soft hum of the engine and the dark blur of trees outside.
I didn’t even realize I was speeding a little… until I saw the lights in my rearview mirror.
My stomach tightened, not from fear, more like anticipation.
I slowed. Signaled. Pulled over.
His car stopped behind me. I watched the door open. Then he stepped out.
Tall. Focused. Calm.
His boots on the asphalt echoed in the silence. He moved slowly, not lazy, just in control.
I rolled down the window.
Tried to keep my expression neutral.
“Is everything okay, officer?”
Our eyes met. His gaze didn’t waver.
“License and registration.”
I handed them over. His fingers brushed mine, firm grip, warm skin.
“Know why I stopped you?”
I shrugged. “Speeding?”
“And a tail light’s out.”
“Oh,” I said, smiling a little. “Didn’t realize.”
He looked at my license. Then at me.
I felt something shift.
“Step out of the vehicle.”
I blinked. “Why?”
He nodded toward a larger van parked just ahead.
“It’s easier to verify inside. Warmer. Private.”
Something about the way he said private made heat crawl under my skin.
I hesitated. But then stepped out.
He led the way. No words. Just footsteps and night.
