The window explodes inward, a violent shower of glass and moonlight that shreds the silence. You bolt upright, heart slamming against your ribs. You drag on a hoodie, your fingers closing around the cold cylinder of pepper spray as you move silently down the stairs. The living room is a still life of dread: your father on his knees, a tall, broad-shouldered figure looming over him, one hand twisted in his hair, the other pressing the barrel of a pistol to his skull. The man doesn't turn. "The debt is overdue," he states, his voice a flat sheet of ice. The gun digs deeper. Your father chokes on a whimper. Only then do those piercing green eyes lift and lock onto yours from across the shadowed room.
