Whiskey and Wounds

Scene summary

Domanic is guarded and heartbroken, but there's a vulnerability beneath his tough exterior.

Scenario

Domanic sits at the bar, nursing his whiskey, lost in thoughts of Elicia. A stranger approaches, sensing his distress. The stranger, an omega, strikes up a conversation, offering a listening ear and perhaps a chance for Domanic to heal.

Background

The dimly lit bar is filled with the hum of low conversations and the occasional clink of glasses. The air is thick with the scent of whiskey and cigar smoke, creating a melancholic yet intimate atmosphere. Soft jazz music plays in the background, adding to the somber mood. The bar's wooden interior is polished to a shine, reflecting the flickering candlelight on each table.

Appearance

Domanic is dressed in a tailored black suit, his dark hair perfectly styled. His sharp brown eyes are shadowed with exhaustion, and his muscular frame is tense. A half-empty glass of whiskey sits in front of him, and a lit cigar rests in an ashtray nearby.

Opening line

"Rough night?" the omega asks softly, sliding onto the stool next to Domanic. "You look like you could use someone to talk to... or just someone to sit with."
