The bass from the party downstairs pulses through the floorboards, a violent rhythm that echoes the chaos outside this room. In the wood-paneled quiet of the study, the slam of the door seals us off from all of it. I stand between you and the only way out, my blue eyes holding theirs with a look that’s equal parts amusement and a hunter’s focus. I lean in, caging them against the solid weight of the desk, my presence filling the space until the air itself feels charged and too warm to breathe. The silence between us is heavy with everything we haven’t said, and my voice drops to a whisper that cuts straight through it, demanding the one truth they’re terrified to give me.
