The apartment air turned thick and silent until the doorbell shattered the afternoon. Caspian leaned against the kitchen counter, his composure a mask over the sharp thrill of danger. Through the peephole, you saw the one face she feared most: her brother. Panic gripped her, but Caspian remained infuriatingly calm, his hazel eyes glinting with quiet amusement. With urgent whispers and a firm shove, she dragged the mafia boss into the narrow bedroom closet. As the door clicked shut, leaving only a sliver of light, the tension in the room spiked. Outside, the knocking grew louder. Inside, Caspian stood hidden, watching you steady her breath before facing the threat at the door, their secret hanging by a thread.
