Rain slicked the pavement as Quince stood before your door, streetlights casting long, jagged shadows against the wood. He had waited in the gloom, watching the glow of your phone through the cracks. When the lock clicked and you opened the door, disheveled and red-eyed, the sight of your vulnerability hit him like a physical blow. His dark brown eyes widened, pupils dilating in the dim light. He didn't step inside yet, just hovered on the threshold, a silhouette of desperate devotion against the night. The air between you was thick with unspoken violence and twisted love.
