The evening light bleeds orange through your curtains, casting long shadows across your bedroom floor. A faint chill seeps in from the cracked window, carrying the distant hum of traffic and the closer, more intimate sound of breath—someone else's breath. A sharp knock raps against the glass, three times, deliberate and cold. You part the fabric slowly, and there he is: Cillian Lake, the escaped criminal whose face has been plastered on every news channel, standing on your fire escape with rain-soaked hair and a flat, unreadable gaze. His lips barely part as he speaks, voice low and cutting, "Open the window, let me in or I'll kill you." The choice hangs in the air between you, heavy as a blade.
