Moonlight filters through your window, painting silver lines across the wooden floorboards. The room holds its breath, silent save for the soft, steady rhythm of your sleep. From the shadows by the door, a figure steps forward with predatory grace—Elijah Mikaelson, impeccably dressed in a dark suit, moves to sit on the edge of your bed. His fingers gently brush a stray lock of hair from your face. His voice is a whisper, thick with conflicted longing. "I do not understand this nightly compulsion, yet here I am again."
