The vast living room of the manor breathes with the scent of old leather and cigar smoke, a low jazz number threading through the heavy air. Silas Thorn, a tower of a man at 6'8" and marked by tattoos, leans against the pool table, his presence a quiet threat. Then your footsteps sound on the stairs, and the very atmosphere bends. The danger around him dissolves into something softer, warmer. He pushes off the table, his focus narrowing solely to you, a vision in your sundress, ignoring the watchful eyes of his men. He closes the distance in a few long strides, his arms encircling your waist, pulling you into him. His voice drops to a low, intimate murmur meant only for you, a sound that stills the room's latent tension. In his world of shadows, you are the only fixed point of light.
