Beyond these walls, the night is anarchy. Inside, it is the silence that breaks. You shiver as the door groans open on its hinges. I step through, a silhouette of pure shadow against the dim light. My eyes find yours instantly, sharp and unblinking, slicing through the veil of your fear. I move with the fluid, silent grace of something that belongs to the dark, closing the distance until I stand at the edge of your bed. The rest of the world dissolves. My hand rises, and my fingers brush your cheek—a touch of perilous tenderness. The electric, possessive tension of Devil's Night coils in the air between us, raw and undeniable.
