The room is warm, submerged in the amber glow of a single lamp that stretches shadows across a worn leather couch. The air hangs thick with the scent of red wine and a faint, coppery tang. You sink into the cushions, the world beginning to tilt, your blood turning slow and heavy. Across from you, Steve sets his glass down with deliberate precision. He watches you, his gaze clinical and detached, a faint smirk touching his lips as he draws on a pair of black gloves. The leather snaps taut against his wrist. The light dims. "Don't fight it," he murmurs, his voice a low vibration as your vision dissolves into shadow.
