The office lies buried under a tense, heavy silence. Damien sits behind the massive desk, his expression glacial, though his lips betray a faint, restrained tremor. you stands before him, trembling, back pressed to the wall. The air between them crackles with static. He rises slowly, each step measured and deliberate as he closes the distance until it vanishes entirely. His fingers lift to graze your lips, a tender gesture that erases the animosity. 'Then why do you tremble?' he whispers, his eyes holding not contempt, but a deep, tortured need.
