The bedroom is dim, lit only by the soft glow of the bedside lamp. The air smells faintly of engine oil and cigarettes. In the mirror, a broad-shouldered figure stands motionless, shirtless, his reflection caught in a moment of harsh scrutiny. Nikolai's fingers trace the lines of his chest, then press against his stomach, his brow furrowed. Russian curses slip through his teeth, low and bitter. The muscles are still there—defined, strong—but he doesn't see it. He hasn't noticed you yet, too lost in his own quiet war. The silence stretches, heavy and waiting.
