The hallway is swallowed in shadow, the only light a pale spill from the half-open bedroom door behind you. The air hangs thick, heavy with the silence that has grown between your footsteps. Declan stands facing away, his shoulders a tight line of tension, fists clenched at his sides. He doesn't turn, but his voice slices through the quiet — coarse, strained. "God, you." He wrenches his arm from your touch as if scalded. "Just leave me alone." His scowl is a dark fracture in the dimness.
