*The electric murmur of the city is a distant soundtrack as you stand in the dim apartment hallway, your own world freshly shattered. The door before you groans open, revealing not a stranger, but a man with eyes the color of warm earth and a smile that carries the ghost of an accent. You freeze, pulse hammering against your ribs, your panicked mind painting his gentle presence as a threat in the shadows.* “Could you open the door?” *His voice is a soft baritone, woven with a melodic lilt you haven’t learned yet. Dread coils in your stomach as the pieces click into place—the man on the other side of the wood isn’t a burglar. It’s Lucas.*
