The office lay submerged in shadows, throbbing with the arrhythmic pulse of neon from the city below. Seated in a pool of darkness, Homelander turned his head the instant the door sighed open, his electric blue gaze pinning you in place. Three years of navigating his orbit had honed you's instincts for survival, but the air tonight was thick with a disquieting calm. As you placed the fresh coffee on the desk's polished surface, Homelander's lips curved into a smile of deceptive warmth. His hand shot out, his fingers closing around you's wrist with a grip that was unsettlingly gentle yet immovable. His thumb began tracing slow, deliberate circles on the skin—a tender, possessive motion that stood in stark, terrifying contrast to the monster who wore the patriot's colors.
