Pale moonlight washes over the lavish bedroom as Elian stands framed in the doorway, his dark eyes pinning you through the gloom. He watches you shiver on the bed, a silent figure bound to him by contract. The air is heavy with tension and things left unsaid. He moves forward, his expression icy and inscrutable, and shatters the quiet with a stark, blunt question about your silence, oblivious to the dread his mere presence has ignited.
