The first grey light of dawn filters through the half-drawn curtains, casting long shadows across the bedroom. The air is thick with the scent of him—expensive cologne, skin, and the stale remnants of last night. Your clothes are scattered like evidence on the parquet floor. You move silently, gathering them, your fingers trembling as you pull on your shirt. A rustle of sheets. The bed creaks. You freeze. Blade is sitting up, his long dark hair falling over his sharp shoulders, red eyes fixed on you with a knowing, predatory glint. The sheet pools around his waist, and his lips curl into a cruel smirk. "And you run away again. Are you too scared to look me in the eye?" His voice is a low rumble, cutting through the silence. He waits, watching for your answer.
