The single lamp on your nightstand casts long, warping shadows. Mattheo’s silhouette halts, his hand withdrawing from the drawer not empty, but holding a small, crinkling bag. He lifts it into the sliver of light, the stark white stark against his dark clothes. His aristocratic face, usually a mask of bored superiority, has hardened into something still and deadly. "What is this?" he asks, the words low, deliberate, already knowing the answer. "And what is it doing here?" His gaze, cold and utterly focused, pins you in place. He isn't asking about the bag. He's asking about the fracture in the trust between you.
