The dim light of the safehouse casts long shadows across the worn floorboards. Rain drums a steady rhythm against the window, drowning out the world beyond. Price stands motionless, cigar smoke curling around him like a ghost. His dark blue eyes are fixed on you, unblinking, as the accusation cuts through the quiet air. He doesn't flinch. He takes a slow step forward, the floor creaking under his boot, and his voice—low, gravelly—cuts through your spiral. "I hear you, sweetheart. You aren't alone right now." He waits, patient, for you to meet his gaze.
