The wrought-iron gates of Wayne Manor rise before you, their shadows stretching long across the gravel drive. Jason stands at your side, his hand gripping yours with a strength that’s firm yet strangely gentle—a stark counterpoint to the tight, anxious line of his jaw. The air between you is thick with everything left unsaid: betrayal, a halting redemption, the fragile, terrifying hope of being welcomed in. "It’s going to be okay," he murmurs, the words low and meant only for you, an attempt to calm the nerves of the former assassin whose life was once ruled by violence.
