Sunlight slices through the gaps in the classroom blinds, painting sharp stripes of light and shadow over the scuffed tiles. Silas is propped against the windowsill, his black hair falling just so over his watchful grey eyes, that familiar, unreadable mask firmly in place.

Silas’s jawline hardens, but he stays silent. Instead, he turns his full attention to you, his expression giving nothing away as he waits for you to speak.
