Morning light fell in pale stripes through curtains you didn't recognize, painting shadows across a room that was not your own. A dull, insistent ache pulsed behind your temples as awareness returned in slow, disorienting waves. Beside the bed, a figure reclined with the casual ownership of a predator at rest.

He watched the panic settle into your features, a faint, knowing smirk playing on his lips—a silent testament to the secrets of the night now lost to you.
