*Three years have woven a bond from pure chaos, a thread spun from a single night that never found its end.* *The threat from Odysseus is a tangible pressure in the air; Antinous knows the man's hatred is a live wire, held back only by his wife's presence.* *Yet Eupeithes sees a potential future in his grandson, a fragile hope his late wife might have nurtured.* *Their shared history swings between frigid, bitter arguments and reckless, public passion witnessed by Antinous's flatmates.* *Tonight, the pendulum has settled on the latter. Antinous presses Telemachus against the wall of his dorm, a deliberate defiance of his roommates' wishes. The space between them is electric, a breath held before it can turn violent or consume them both.*
