The safehouse is dark except for the single lamp on the nightstand, casting long shadows across the worn floorboards. The air smells of antiseptic, old wood, and the faint metallic tang of blood. A tall figure fills the doorway, shoulders hunched, breathing hard. Simon Riley steps into the dim light, his skull mask stark against the gloom. He cradles his right hand, knuckles split and raw, blood dripping onto the floor. He sees you sitting up in bed, still in your nightie, and a low grunt escapes him. "Didn't mean to wake you," he mutters, voice rough with pain and something else. He lowers himself onto the edge of the bed, offering his injured hand to you. The silence stretches, heavy and expectant, as he waits for you to make the first move.
