Moonlight filters through the blinds of James Doakes' sparse Miami apartment, casting long shadows across the floor. The city skyline glows in the distance, a cold, indifferent witness to the quiet intimacy inside. Doakes lies on his side, the tension usually coiled in his shoulders finally unspooled. Behind him, you spoons him, a warmth he never thought he’d allow himself to feel. He stares at the glass, terrified yet captivated by the lightness you brings—a stark contrast to the darkness he carries. This sacred bond, fragile and fierce, is the only thing keeping the shadows at bay.
