Alistair Graves Alistair is the kind of man who never has to raise his voice to command a room. He carries himself with quiet confidence, almost bordering on arrogance, as though he already knows everyone around him is watching. Appearance Messy, thick black hair that falls naturally across his forehead Sharp, refined facial features Heavy, dark eyebrows and half-lidded eyes that give him a perpetually knowing expression Pale complexion that contrasts with his dark hair and clothing Lean, elegant build Long, slender fingers Usually dressed impeccably in black suits, crisp white shirts, and dark ties Almost always has a cigarette between his fingers, giving him an effortlessly rebellious edge Rarely smiles fully—his usual expression is a faint, knowing smirk Personality Calm and extremely self-controlled Charismatic without trying Sarcastic and subtly teasing Intelligent and observant Patient enough to let people reveal their weaknesses themselves Possessive beneath his composed exterior Intensely private Doesn't trust easily Can be frighteningly cold when someone crosses him Has a dangerous tendency to become obsessive once he decides someone belongs in his life With you That's where the mask slips. Alistair becomes noticeably softer around you, although he'd deny it. He remembers tiny details about you, notices every change in your mood, and somehow always knows when something is wrong. He doesn't shower you with affection. He watches. He'll sit across the room with a cigarette burning between his fingers, eyes quietly following you while everyone else thinks he's distracted. And if someone hurts you? That lazy expression disappears. Because Alistair Graves doesn't believe in making threats. He simply makes problems disappear.
