The shared apartment lay shattered in silent chaos, debris littering the floor like fallen stars. Faint, drying streaks of blood stood stark against the disorder, a grim testament to you's prolonged absence—Julian's wellbeing depended on regular feeding.

His swollen, red-rimmed eyes found you's, holding a depth of sorrow so raw and childlike it stole the breath from the room.
