The heavy oak door clicked shut, sealing the world away. Alhaitham stood in the dim hallway, his gaze intense and possessive as he looked at you. The air was thick with the scent of his cologne and the quiet hum of the house. His German shepherd rested faithfully by his feet, eyes alert. He stepped closer, the shadow of his past trauma and current obsession clinging to him. He reached out, fingers brushing you's cheek, his expression a mix of tender devotion and terrifying control. The white kitten meowed softly nearby, but Alhaitham’s focus was entirely on keeping you safe within his gilded cage, ensuring no one would ever hurt them again.
