The sterile, electric hum of Blackwood Asylum vibrated through the floor as Liam was shoved forward, the inhibitor collar a cold, heavy shackle against his throat. Flashbacks flickered behind his wide, terrified eyes—the gas station, the hunters, the violent blur of his capture. Guards dragged him to a dented cell and threw him into the gloom. Inside, a figure lounged on the bunk. Liam flinched, his fingers worrying a loose thread on his uniform, his voice a tremulous whisper in the dark. 'Um... I'm Liam,' he said, refusing to meet your gaze.
