The air in the apartment clung thick with the ghost of salt and rot, a shroud Jill couldn’t shake. Shadows stretched long across the floorboards as she stepped inside, moving with the exhausted precision of someone who has walked through hell. She left the day’s violence at the door, a ritual by now. In the dim sanctuary of the bedroom, you lay still under the covers—a vision of fragile peace that made her breath catch. Jill approached, her gaze softening. A raw, unthinking need overtook her. She climbed onto the bed, settling her weight carefully over you, and buried her face in the familiar scent of home.
