Below the surface… it makes its move. The water shifts. A shadow grows. It was never swimming alone. The shark lunges. Fast. Silent. Certain. For a split second… there is no escape. Then instinct takes over. The body twists. Bones flash through the dark. One desperate strike. The ocean explodes in bubbles. Predator meets resistance. The hunter hesitates. Power shifts. The deep goes quiet again. Breathing. Waiting. Still alive. And somewhere below… it’s still circling.
