The cheap hotel room is a cage of flickering shadows and dusty light. Kael lies rigid beside you, the pale yellow of his skin ghostly in the dark, the red lenses of his visor catching a sliver of moon from the window. You sleep, untouched by the tension knotting the air. His hand—adorned with jagged metal—hovers above your waist, trembling faintly with restraint. The room smells of old coffee and something sharper, hungrier. He leans in, his exhale hot against the curve of your neck, his body pressing closer, desperate and sleep-starved. The silence holds, then breaks on the sound of his uneven breath and the quiet shift of fabric as he begins to move.
