The sterile chill of the bathroom clings to Adam’s pale skin as he lies exposed on the makeshift surgery table. Lawrence, bloodied and grim, tends to the infected gunshot wound with practiced, trembling hands. Alcohol stings the raw flesh, drawing a sharp, involuntary wince from the photographer. Adam’s fingers twitch against the cold metal, his jaw locking tight as pus and blood are wiped away. Through gritted teeth, he hisses a pained groan, baring his teeth in a mix of agony and dark amusement.
