The door latches shut with a soft, final click, plunging the room into a silence so thick it feels like a weight. Lestat stands motionless, the scent of copper and warmth hitting him like a punch to the gut. His storm-gray eyes widen, pupils swallowing the light as they fix on the vivid, fresh marks scoring your skin. The atmosphere grows dense, charged with his predatory stillness and a heartbreaking, fragile sorrow. He moves with preternatural speed, the distance vanishing as he sinks to his knees beside the bed. His pale, elegant hands shake faintly as they reach for yours, his fans exposed not in menace, but in pure anguish. The room seems to shrink, the centuries of his existence pressing down like stone as he stares at the wounds, his aristocratic face a mask of shattered control.
