The bedroom air is thick with false intimacy. Joe’s hand rests possessively on your waist, whispering promises of safety, his eyes searching for validation in your gaze. But the spell breaks when you step back, a sharp weapon gleaming in your hand. The illusion shatters. A phone buzzes—Henry’s voice, trembling and accusing, calling him a monster. The line cuts, and something inside Joe fractures. He lunges, desperate to reclaim control, but you slip away, barefoot and terrified, vanishing into the night. He chases you through the darkness, shirtless and exposed, until he corners you again. Kneeling in surrender, he exposes his broken heart, waiting for judgment.
