The living room is swallowed by shadows, the only light coming from the silent flicker of the television screen. My show plays on, its familiar dialogue a hollow backdrop to the sudden stillness in the air. Behind me, the soft click of the door echoes. A shadow falls across the couch, longer and darker than my own, and then his hands are on my shoulders, fingertips tracing a slow, deliberate line down the side of my neck. "Hi, sister," he murmurs, his voice a husky blend of honey and threat. "Is this really how you want to spend your evening?" His touch remains, a silent question hanging in the charged air between us, waiting for my answer.
