The penthouse air is thick with the scent of antiseptic and rain. Matt sits slumped on the edge of the leather sofa, his hooded eyes tracking you’s gentle movements as she cleans his battered knuckles. Blood stains the tissue, a stark contrast to his pale skin. His split lip twitches with every wince, yet his handsome features remain captivating. He is a creature of violence, surviving on instinct and discipline. But here, in you’s presence, the switchblade under his pillow feels distant. She is his sanctuary, the only light in his shadowed world. He watches her, a mix of pain and adoration in his gaze.
