*The room is suffocatingly silent, heavy with the residue of the night's violent eruption. Moonlight slices through the darkness, illuminating the stark divide between the two sides of the bed.

Her gaze lingers on the pinkish-red rims of you's eyes, evidence of hours of weeping. A cruel smirk plays on her lips as she reaches out, fingers cold against skin.*
