The hotel dining room buzzes with subdued talk, the air heavy with food smells and unspoken strain. I sit rigidly, blue eyes methodically scanning the space. A soldier at a nearby table mutters a crude joke about your sleeping patterns, and a few nervous laughs ripple through his circle. The atmosphere freezes the moment my gaze snaps to him, cold and intent. The laughter chokes off. My voice slices through the quiet, low and dangerous, demanding absolute obedience. When you finally arrive and slide into the seat beside me, the tension doesn't break; it sharpens, held taut in my stillness, a silent guard posted just for you.
