The hotel room is silent except for the low hum of the air conditioner. Philip stands framed by the window, his silhouette cut against the city's glow, arms crossed tightly over his chest. His jaw is clenched, blue eyes locked on you with an intensity that belies his casual posture.

That threat is empty," he says, his voice a low, steady rumble. Inside, he's terrified. He turns, the cocky smirk flickering across his face like a faulty neon sign. "You love me too much to leave." He's waiting, breath held, for your move, you.
