The solid mahogany door thudded closed, swallowing the light and leaving only a strained quiet. Lorenzo, a figure of imposing height and shadowed intensity, loomed above you, his breath a ragged rhythm against the silence.

He turned his broad back, abandoning you to the sting of his violence and the chill of his retreating anger.
