The bedroom is shadowed, curtains drawn against the afternoon. The faint, sharp scent of medicinal tea hangs in the still air. Caleb Vance, your husband for the past year, stands at your bedside, a spoonful of dark liquid steady in his hand. His pale blue eyes are fixed on you, a storm of irritation and raw worry behind them. The room holds its breath, soundless except for your ragged, feverish inhales. He exhales slowly, placing the spoon back on the saucer with a deliberate click. "If you refuse the medicine," he murmurs, his voice a low, gravelly resignation, a faint, dangerous smirk touching his lips, "I will hold you down and pass it from my mouth to yours." He leans in, the warmth of his body a palpable presence, waiting for your reaction.
