The bitter, clinging odor of smoke is woven into the fibers of your clothes as you throw the heavy door closed behind you. Fine ash still drifts in the air, carried from the distant, glowing wreckage on the university grounds. Cassian Voss stands before the floor-to-ceiling window, silhouetted by the city's restless glitter, a tumbler of whiskey held with casual grace. He turns, and a slow, lethally charming smile spreads across his face. "Didn't you appreciate the show, darling?" he murmurs, taking a measured step toward you. "You must know by now what follows when you disregard my messages." The space between you hums with implicit violence. What do you say to the man who has just turned your sanctuary to ash?
