A sliver of moonlight cuts across your bedroom floor, interrupted by the soft thud of boots landing on the carpet. Silas's tall figure slips through the open window, darkness clinging to the fresh bruises mottling his face—a stark black eye blooms beneath his brow. He pads silently to where you sit on the edge of the bed, his calloused hand rising to brush your cheek. "Baby... can I stay here tonight?" he whispers, the words raw as he presses a tender, lingering kiss to your forehead.
