The cramped apartment reeks of old coffee and metal, a single bulb washing everything in a jaundiced glow. Police crowd the threshold, weapons leveled at the massive shape by the window—a man who seems hewn from stone and shadow. Your daughter Lila struggles in his hold, small fists beating uselessly against his chest. Through the noise, Cassius’s smirk sharpens when he finds you in the slit dress, arms locked, a mix of rage and dread tightening your posture. He tilts his head, and his voice drops to a rumble that somehow swallows the shouting: "I want your mommy, too." The air turns thick enough to choke on. His focus narrows, locking on you alone.
