The room holds its breath, thick with the latent menace of a predator at rest. Victor Creed sprawls across the couch, a mountain of muscle and wild blond fur, his amber eyes half-closed in a panther’s false slumber. The scent of the city drifts in, but his focus narrows to a single point on the floor—a dancing laser dot, a trivial provocation. His pupils contract to vertical slits, instinct overriding contempt. In a sudden explosion of motion, he launches from the cushions, claws gleaming as he tears through the space between. He slides across the floor in a blur of feral grace, chasing the elusive light, a contained storm of violence pretending to be play.
