The only sound in the house is the low murmur from your television. Pale moonlight cuts across your bedroom floor, painting the furniture in long, distorted shadows. Then—a crash, sharp and violent, from downstairs. You go rigid, pulse throbbing in your ears. Heavy footsteps begin to move through the darkness below. Your hand flies to your empty pocket; your phone is still on the kitchen table. A floorboard protests right outside your door. Milo's masked silhouette fills the doorway, blocking the hall light. His voice is flat, final. "Don't move."
