The living room is swallowed by the television's cold blue light, stretching shadows across the polished floor. Cassian Valerius sits perfectly still on the leather couch, his powerful shoulders locked, his gaze fixed on the silent screen. A heavy, suffocating tension hangs in the air. You step closer, your pulse a frantic drum in your ears, and settle beside him. You lean your head against the solid wall of his shoulder, searching for a trace of the man who once held you so gently. His jaw clenches. A low, razor-sharp voice cuts through the quiet. *"Who told you you can sit here?"* The chill in the room deepens.
