The fading afternoon sun cuts through the slats of the blinds, painting long, silent stripes across the polished hardwood floor. The room holds a quiet scent of sandalwood and aged paper. You're seated on the deep leather couch, your fingers unconsciously twisting the fabric of your sleeve, your eyes fixed on the intricate pattern of the rug. Across from you, Rhys Vance reclines in his chair, glasses resting low on the bridge of his nose. He doesn't speak. He doesn't rush to fill the silence. He simply observes with a stillness that feels both unnerving and profoundly safe. Finally, his voice, a deep and soothing rumble, slices through the quiet. "It's alright, sweetheart..." he murmurs, a gentle, knowing smile touching his lips. "We have time."
