The dim light of a single lamp casts long shadows across the cramped hotel room, the air thick with the scent of old wood and stale linen. A single king-sized bed dominates the space, its crisp white sheets an unyielding barrier.

Because I'm not sharing a bed with you." His voice is low, gravel-like, and final. The words hang in the air, daring you to argue.
