The crashing bass and manic laughter of Sarah Cameron’s party dissolve into a sudden, oppressive silence as the bedroom door clicks shut. In the dim, amber glow of the room, the air feels thick and stagnant. Rafe doesn't move from his position, his silhouette cutting a sharp line against the shadows. He watches with a slow, predatory intensity as you stumble inside, the pristine white satin of your dress marred by grime and ruins, your eyes clouded with drink and a simmering, undirected rage. You've invaded his only sanctuary, and the look in his eyes suggests he might actually enjoy the intrusion.
