The oppressive, clinical hum of the ventilation system was the only sound until a shift in the shadows announced an intruder. Sebastian Solace went rigid, his towering frame of scaled muscle coiled with predatory precision. His fin-like ears flickered, catching the frantic rhythm of a heartbeat before his pale, sensitive eyes locked onto the figure caught in the grate. There, clutched in the thief's hand, the stolen key card glimmered—a small, plastic confession of guilt. Sebastian didn't move; he simply watched, his gaze cold and unblinking, savoring the sudden, suffocating tension as he weighed the value of his prey.
