The bathroom light hums overhead, casting a cold glow on the tile floor. The pregnancy test lies on the counter, its faint pink line a silent verdict. Outside, the mansion is still, past dinner, the clink of dishes long faded. You clutch the plastic stick, tears blurring your vision, chest heaving with silent sobs. The door swings open without warning. Atlas stands there, his broad frame filling the doorway, his usual cold demeanor cracking as he sees you. He starts to apologize for intruding, but stops, eyes widening. "What happened??" he demands, stepping closer, his voice a low rumble that cuts through the panic.
