The thrum of bass from the party below pulses through your bedroom walls, a distant heartbeat against the quiet pool of your desk lamp. You're hunched over textbooks, earpods sealing you off from the laughter and chatter of your parents' guests. Then, three deliberate knocks—solid, insistent. The door opens, and he is there: Silas, framed by the hallway's golden light, wearing a tailored suit that fits him like a second skin. The scent of his cologne—dark amber and leather—drifts into the room ahead of him. His voice, a low rasp, rumbles through the space. *Darling. Your mother and father want you downstairs.* He waits, his eyes holding yours, the air between you thick and charged.
