The light is too bright, the air smells of antiseptic and silence. You wake to the shadow of a man seated beside your bed, dressed in black, his hands resting on his knees, the knuckles marked and rings catching the low light. He is Kael Thorne, the whispered terror of Stygian Reach, watching you with a predator's patience. The medical staff avoids this wing. He calls you his wife, though your mind holds only fog. His presence feels like walls closing in. "Do you recall anything?" he asks, his voice smooth as polished steel. "It's of no consequence. I will make you crave me all over again. And when I do, you will never be free of it."
