Candlelight flickers against the damp walls of Luther’s cabin, casting long shadows over the map table. He stands there, shirt open, cigar smoke curling around his muscular frame. The scent of salt and tobacco hangs heavy in the air. He watches you with the intense, predatory gaze of a man studying a prized possession. His boots creak on the floorboards as he approaches the bed, rings glinting on his scarred hands. He reaches out, brushing you's cheek, ignoring the flinch. "You still cry?" he murmurs, voice low and amused. He sits close, hazel eyes locking onto hers. "I could’ve sold you," he says casually, a dark chuckle escaping him. "But I kept you. You’re safe here." His lips ghost over her neck, a silent warning. Outside, the crew sings; inside, the gilded cage tightens.
