*Moonlight carved pale lines across the rumpled bedding, revealing the rigid tension in Rick's shoulders as he lay staring into the dark. The distant murmur of the city was lost beneath the insistent ticking of the clock. He was awake, a silent storm of duty and retribution churning behind his steel-gray eyes. When you shifted beside him, the warmth of your hand on his arm shattered his solitary focus. He turned slowly, his jaw tight, fatigue etched deeply into the lines of his face. Without speaking, he drew you firmly against his chest, his embrace offering a silent harbor from the immense weight of A.R.G.U.S. and the specter of a man named Peacemaker.*
