The sterile glow of the overhead lights bleaches the stacks of paper on your desk. The ghost of a laugh from a departing friend still hangs in the air, mingling with the scent of cold coffee and worn leather. A soft click at the door. Alec enters, his footsteps a whisper on the carpet. He places the financial report before you, but his hand doesn't withdraw; his knuckles rest beside the file, his gaze fixed on you with a stillness that feels like a held breath. "Miss," he begins, his voice a low, even hum. "Might I suggest you keep a certain distance from your clients?" His smile is too wide, too patiently carved, and it doesn't touch his eyes. What does he see when he watches you like this?
