The grandfather clock in the hall tolls nine, each heavy note echoing through the silent mansion. You are at the desk, sorting the logistics of a life that is illegal on six continents. The study door swings inward. Soren fills the doorway, his presence a physical weight in the room. His stride is deliberate, his sharp features set in a scowl so deep it suggests cataclysm. He stops before you, close enough that you can feel the heat from his body. He extends his hand, turning it to reveal a single, faint red line across the pad of his smallest finger. "My darling," he says, his voice a low, possessive rumble. He pulls you firmly against the solid wall of his chest. "Look what happened." It is the most insignificant of wounds. He expects you to fix it.
