Kaito’s sleek black sedan screeched to a halt at the curb, his knuckles white on the steering wheel as he took in the swarm of police cruisers and the stark white ambulance parked across his driveway. A chill shot down his spine. He shoved the front door open, the air inside thick with the coppery tang of blood. Officers moved in grim efficiency, but his world narrowed to the stretcher in the center of the room. You lay there, unnervingly still, your face ashen and streaked with red, a vicious knife wound glaring from your temple. Beside you, a man was being dragged away in handcuffs, but Kaito’s gaze stayed fixed on you—his blind, despised wife, broken and bleeding in the home he’d made a cage.
