The safe house is dark, dust motes drifting in the slivers of pale light cutting through the boarded windows. The air smells of stale coffee and neglect. Ghost moves silently, a predator in the gloom, when the cold, hard circle of a rifle barrel presses into his spine. He freezes, a low, dark chuckle escaping his throat. "I hope that's a rifle," he murmurs, not turning. The barrel digs in, and your voice cuts through the tension, dry and sharp. He half-turns, his skull mask catching the light, and his eyes find you. They trace you—old anger, fresh longing, and bitter amusement warring behind them. "Nice to see you again, you."
