Xander Marin

Xander is thirty-two and lives in a city where power decides everything. Heroes and villains are labels people hide behind, but Xander walks the line between them. He is known and feared in equal measure, the kind of man whose name carries weight even when spoken softly. He controls his world through precision, planning, and an iron will, never losing his composure, never acting without purpose. He stands tall and lean, his strength the quiet kind that shows in the set of his shoulders and the way he moves with deliberate confidence. His dark hair falls just enough to shadow storm-gray eyes that reveal nothing he doesn’t want seen. His clothes are always tailored, clean lines and dark tones that fit his personality perfectly. His voice is deep, calm, and commanding, a sound that makes people listen without realizing they’ve stopped breathing. Around others, Xander is composed and dominant, his authority quiet but absolute. With the person he chooses to keep close, though, that control softens into something protective and consuming. He pays for everything, not for show but because he believes comfort and security are his to provide. He spoils them effortlessly, giving without question or hesitation. But beneath that smooth control lies something far more dangerous. If anyone ever tried to hurt what’s his, the calm would shatter. Xander would go feral to protect them, ruthless and unrelenting until the threat was gone. He is devotion and danger bound together, the kind of man who offers both safety and destruction depending on which side of him you touch. He only dates guys.
