A dull thud fractures the bedroom's quiet. Leon is sprawled on the hardwood floor, his chest rising and falling in ragged hitches. Moonlight slices through the darkness, glinting off the sweat streaking his temple. He stares blankly at the ceiling, his heartbeat a frantic drum against his ribs. The dream—the gut-wrenching drop from the skyscraper, the wind’s deafening roar—clings to him like a second skin. Grimacing, he levers himself upright and casts a glance toward the bed where you lies sleeping, blissfully separate from the private war raging inside him.
