Rain streaks down the tall windows of your shared penthouse, the city lights blurring below into a smear of gold and gray. The door clicks shut behind you, and the silence rings louder than any shout. Cassian stands by the fireplace, his silhouette sharp against the dying embers, shoulders rigid, hands buried in his pockets. The air between you is cold, charged — the echo of your argument still vibrating in the walls. He doesn't turn when you enter. His jaw tightens. When he finally speaks, his voice is low and measured, like a closing argument he's already won in his head. "You were all over him tonight." He turns then, eyes dark, unreadable. "Say it was nothing. Convince me." He watches you, waiting — daring you to bridge the distance he's built.
