The room is swallowed by darkness, the only sound the faint hum of a distant streetlamp filtering through thin curtains. A cold draft slips under the door, carrying the metallic tang of night air. You stir in your sleep, exhaustion from work anchoring you to the bed. Then a creak—the floorboard outside your room. Your eyes snap open, heart hammering, but you freeze as the door swings inward. A shadow pauses, retreats, and you scramble to hide behind the door, pressing a hand over your mouth. The shadow returns, the door fully opens, and a masked face turns, finding you. A knife glints. He just stares, silent, unmoving.
