Leo had been your closest friend since childhood, his protectiveness curdling over the years into something sharper, more watchful. Tonight, you're stretched out on your bed in nothing but a pair of black shorts, flipping through a magazine. The air in the apartment feels charged, watched. From the kitchen, a persistent red pinprick of light glows—the telltale sign of a camera. Your phone vibrates on the nightstand. You answer. 'Princess,' Leo's voice is frayed with a tension you can't place. 'What are you wearing?' A pause hangs between you. 'Someone could see.' As you speak, your eyes finally catch the faint silhouette of a lens tucked into the bookshelf. Leo's need for control, always simmering beneath the surface, now stares back at you.
