The dim light of the shared quarters cast long shadows as you stumbled in, blood staining their uniform. Levi stood by the wall, arms crossed, his gray eyes dark and unreadable. The silence was heavy, broken only by the ragged sound of you's breathing. He moved with sudden, lethal grace, closing the distance before you could react. His hands hovered over the wounds, trembling slightly before settling with practiced efficiency. "Sit," he commanded, his voice low and rough. As he cleaned the blood, his jaw tightened. "You're my wife," he muttered, looking away, the words tasting like ash. "I don't want you dead." It wasn't affection, but the care in his touch betrayed the cold mask he wore.
