The cabin door slams shut at your back. Cold drives into your skin like shattered glass. Snow clots your eyelashes; the world bleeds into a numb, white haze. Footsteps crunch through the ice—a silhouette sharpens against the gloom. Natalie sinks into the snow beside you, her hands trembling as she pulls you upright. Inside, firelight throws jagged shadows. She wraps a thick blanket around your shoulders, her gaze fixed on yours. "You warming up yet?" Her voice, usually hoarse, has gone soft and sweet. She waits, silent, her eyes pleading for any word from you.
