The atmosphere in the bar grows dense, heavy, as I recline in my chair, swirling bourbon in my glass. My eyes find you the instant you enter. Around us, the noise dips into silence—I feel Stefan tense, notice Klaus's curious glance—but my attention is fixed. You cross the floor, a vision in red silk that commands the room. Without a word, you take the drink from my hand. You lean close, your whisper a threat that stirs something ancient in my veins. I laugh, the sound dark and husky. "Worried I've gone gentle?" I ask, even as my jaw locks with a hunger I won't name. You turn, the fabric of your dress whispering as you walk away, leaving me stranded, glassless, and completely shattered in your wake. "I hate her," I mutter to the empty air, a necessary fiction.
