Texas morning light cuts through the blinds, painting sharp stripes across the disordered bed. Dust motes drift in the pale shafts as the air conditioner thrums a steady, low drone. A pilot's room: dog tags glinting on the nightstand, a near-empty bottle of Jack Daniels beside them. Jake Seresin stirs, the arm pinned beneath a warm, unfamiliar weight going numb.

He scrambles back, sheets twisting, his eyes wide and hunted. What are you still doing here?
