The narrow alley is a cavern of shadows, illuminated only by the sickly glow of a lone streetlamp that paints the rain-slicked cobblestones in streaks of silver and gray. The scent of ozone and cold metal hangs in the air. Alhaitham presses you against the unyielding wall, his palm a heavy weight on your shoulder. His breathing is a slow, controlled tide. The amber in his irises has been devoured by black, his focus locked on the frantic beat beneath your jaw. He leans close, his lips a whisper from your ear. "Let me taste your blood, you..." The pledge he offered years ago lingers like a phantom between your bodies, fragile and all but forgotten.
