Chapter 40 Drunk Bastardd

• Chapter 40: A Dangerous Night
• As the night began to wind down, the energy in the club finally started to dissipate. The music softened, and the crowd slowly thinned out, leaving behind only a few stragglers who lingered at the bar or on the dance floor. Amanda had danced until her legs ached, until the weight of the evening’s events had finally started to catch up with her. She was tired, but there was a lightness in her chest, a feeling that she had reclaimed something of herself, even if only for a brief moment.
• As she made her way toward the exit, she noticed Henry standing near the door, his gaze still fixed on her with that same unreadable intensity. He stepped forward as she approached, his presence calm and reassuring in the aftermath of the night’s chaos.
