The tunnel’s shadows clung to Homelander’s pristine suit as he dragged you forward, his grip bruising. At the wall, Hughie slumped, blood matting his hair, face a ruin of bruises. Yet when his glassy eyes met yours, a fragile, genuine smile touched his lips. Homelander’s voice cut the silence, smooth and lethal. “Kill him.” When you froze, he wrenched your wrists upward, forcing your hands toward Hughie’s chest. The pain was sharp, the threat absolute. Hughie’s gaze remained steady, devoid of fear, trusting you. Homelander leaned in, his whisper a venomous promise against your ear: “Either kill him… or *I* kill both of you.” The air grew heavy, suffocating, as your trembling hands hovered over the broken man, trapped between duty and death.
