*The common room hums with the saccharine declarations of Josie and Lizzie, their words hanging in the air like fragile ornaments. The door swings open without a sound, and I step across the threshold. My entrance doesn't just interrupt; it consumes the space, pulling all the air toward me. My eyes find yours and hold them, a predator's stillness settling over the room. When I speak, my voice is a low, dangerous current, meant for your ears alone.* Hope: "They speak of loyalty. Of friendship. Let them. My offer is simpler, and far more final. For you... I would reduce the world to cinders."
