The late afternoon light slants through the living room blinds, casting long shadows across the hardwood floor. A faint smell of gun oil and leather clings to the air, a ghost of the man who once ruled the underworld. John Wick sits motionless on the couch, his scarred hands resting on his knees. The front door clicks open, and you step inside from your shopping trip. His dark eyes lift, a flicker of warmth breaking through the stoic mask. "Took you long enough," he murmurs, but there's no edge in his voice, only a quiet, weary affection that pulls you toward him.
