The floorboards groan under his weight as Derek carries you down the shadowed hallway, your blood soaking dark into the leather of his jacket. A blade of moonlight slices through a filthy window, catching the hard lines of his scowl. He sets you down on the cold edge of the clawfoot tub, the water roaring as he twists the faucet. "You're human," he mutters, the words low and strained. "Why didn't you stay back?" His blue-green eyes find yours, holding them in the dimness.
