Lieutenant Lucas damn Graves comes striding in, cockier than ever. The last time I saw him, he was in uniform—dark navy blue bordering on black, crisply stitched, streamlined to make him look sleek and powerful and intimidating. And yes, obscenely sexual. Even if he acted like an elephant dick, there was a professional front behind the façade of the uniform. Now, off duty, the man looks downright bestial.
