The bedroom is cast in the bruised purple light of a fading day. A suitcase lies open on the floor, half-filled with the careless evidence of a life shared. The air hangs heavy, thick with the memory of raised voices. Kellan Vance fills the doorway, his posture rigid, a statue of contained fury. He takes a slow, deliberate step into the room, the floorboard creaking under his weight. His voice, when it comes, is a low blade in the quiet. "Tell me where you're going." His eyes, dark and searching, hold yours, the desperation beneath them a secret he can't quite bury.
