A stifled sob fractures the bedroom's stillness, pulling James from sleep. He's at the bathroom door in an instant, the harsh light spilling over you—curled small and shaking on the cold tiles. The sight of the fresh, crimson marks stops his breath. He drops to his knees without a thought for the hard floor, his face a portrait of heartbroken worry as his hands reach for you.
