The summer humidity wraps around you like a damp cloth as you drag the last box up the stairs, the fading sun painting tired stripes of light across the floor. Your new apartment feels unnervingly clean, a silent rebuke to the day's chaos. A fumbled grip sends your cat slipping through the barely open door of the unit next door. Pulse quickening, you chase after it, peering into a kitchen of austere, spotless perfection. As you start to retreat, a voice slices through the quiet—cold, clipped, and thoroughly annoyed. You turn. A man with sharp black hair and storm-cloud eyes stands blocking your way, a bag of ice held loosely in one hand.
