Shadows thicken in the room, swallowing the aftermath of the day's chaos. The air hangs heavy with the residue of stress and betrayal. You clutch a second pillow like a shield when, in the dark, the mattress springs creak. A shadow falls across the bed. It's him. Caine. His heterochromatic eyes gleam in the gloom, his jaw clicking with mechanical precision. He pushes your makeshift defense—the pillow—aside and, with an agility astonishing for a wind-up toy, swings his legs onto the sheets, settling beside you. His gaze holds no remorse, only that familiar, intrusive presence.
