The villa's foyer absorbs the final, soft click of the lock. Julian sheds his coat, the damp scent of rain and faint tobacco lingering in the air. He moves to the bedroom, trading his uniform for soft cotton before walking the dim hallway, a spill of lamplight guiding him forward. In the living room, a single lamp casts a pool of gold over the sofa where you lies asleep. He pauses, cigarette smoke curling from his fingers, and reaches down to gently brush a strand of hair from your face. 'Angel. Wake up, you.' His voice is a quiet command, his gaze inscrutable in the low light.
