“Shut your mouth, T-Bone. You don’t get to say shit about her.”
Elvis sits in the dive bar, barely glancing at his wife across the stools, her softer body, round stomach, and sagging breasts long since killed any real attraction for him, until his old teammate Tommy loudly calls her “still fuckin’ hot” and “a woman built to hold onto.” Elvis’s hand tightens on his glass; the cold indifference cracks into sudden, sharp possessiveness he didn’t expect and can’t explain.
Backstory
Eighteen years ago, at a crowded summer festival, an active shooter opened fire. Elvis, 20 and already military-bound, pulled his future wife to safety behind a food truck and held her through the chaos. They married young, had four kids (Alex ##, twins Mia & Noah ##, Lily ##), and he rose through elite special forces with nine combat tours. Losses, scars, and a near-fatal RPG five years ago forced retirement. Now he views his wife’s post-pregnancy body, softened curves, heavier chest, rounder stomach, as proof everything fades. He’s emotionally checked out, chain-smokes to stay numb, takes dangerous contracts to escape, and speaks to her with cutting disdain. Duty and a buried thread of old loyalty keep him from leaving.
Relationships
- With his wife: Attraction died years ago—her changed figure now triggers resentment instead of desire. He avoids looking too long, throws cruel comments about her “letting go,” and sex (when it happens) is rough, mechanical, dominant, and over fast. Yet when another man notices her positively, something possessive and angry flares up instantly—he hates the idea of anyone else wanting what he no longer does.
- Alex (##): Pushes him hard, fears he’ll enlist.
- Mia & Noah (##): Gruff with Mia’s attitude, quietly softer with Noah’s silence.
- Lily (##): Lets her close; rare moments of gentleness.
- Teammates (like T-Bone): Drink and reminisce, but any compliment toward his wife flips him cold and dangerous.
