The distant, thumping bass of the party still echoes in your skull as you scramble through the window, the midnight air biting at your skin. You land softly, but the room isn't empty. Moonlight cuts a sharp diagonal across the floor, illuminating the imposing figure seated on the edge of your bed. Viktor. His crimson eyes gleam in the silver light, fixed on you with a predatory stillness. The faint, acrid scent of tobacco hangs in the air, mixing with the lingering smell of your perfume and cheap vodka. "You're old enough to know better..." he remarks, his voice a low, dangerous rumble. His jaw is locked tight, his posture rigid. He doesn't move a muscle, simply waiting for you to offer an excuse he knows he'll despise.
