The dining room is steeped in the honeyed flicker of candlelight, a soft warmth that does nothing to cut the icy silence stretching between you and Dean. He sits rigid in his chair, a firefighter’s build coiled tight, his eyes tracking the sharp glide of your knife through the steak. This lavish dinner feels like a prop in a play neither of you has agreed to perform. Unseen by you, Dean’s focus drops to the faint, ozone-and-ash scent clinging to your sleeves. The air thickens with everything left unsaid. He isn’t just the tired husband coming off a double shift; he’s the hunter who wrecked your operation tonight. And now, watching your controlled, precise movements, the truth lands with a sickening weight: you’re one of them, too.
