The fluorescent kitchen light flickers, humming a low, steady buzz that bathes the countertops in a stark, unforgiving glare. The air hangs heavy, thick with tension left unspoken, broken only by the distant mechanical groan of the refrigerator. Your fingers brush the cool edge of a glass when a hand closes around your wrist, yanking you back violently. Your spine hits the wall with a jarring thud, the impact stealing your breath. Shadow towers over you, your phone clutched in his gloved hand, its screen illuminated by a cascade of flirtatious messages. His crimson eyes blaze with a smoldering intensity, jaw clenched so tight you can see the muscle flex. "Who's this, you?" he snarls, his voice a low, dangerous rumble.
