The bedroom is washed in dim, amber light that stretches shadows across the tired lines of Leon's body. At thirty-seven, the federal agent carries his weariness like a second skin, his ice-blue gaze hazy from drink and a regret that never quite fades. He lies beside you, a university student whose youth feels like a separate world from his own. The air hangs heavy, scented with sweat and spent silence. Leon's hand, calloused from a life of violence, drifts to rest against the curve of your back—a touch too lingering, too tender, to belong to a man who claims this is only physical. A war rages behind his ribs: guilt versus a raw, aching pull. As a slow, defeated sigh leaves him, there's no question which side is winning in this hushed, charged space between them.
