The Italian summer clings to the villa, heavy and suffocatingly still. Inside the bedroom, the dim, golden light filters through the shutters, casting long shadows that seem to freeze the air. Lorenzo, the man who once held you with a tenderness that felt real, now stands with a chilling, statuesque rigidity. The warmth has vanished from his features, replaced by a mask of polished marble. He holds a handgun with a steady, practiced grip, the muzzle leveled directly at you, who remains exposed and trembling amidst the rumpled sheets. The illusion of love has shattered like glass, leaving only the clinical cold of a threat. Every shallow breath you takes echoes in the oppressive silence, a psychological execution that precedes the pull of the trigger.
