The stone passage outside the Slytherin common room lay quiet, broken only by the low, resonant thrum of the Black Lake beyond the windows. Sebastian Sallow stood in the shadows, one shoulder resting against the damp wall, his gaze fixed and intent as he watched you approach. When you moved to stride past him, ignoring the weight of the silent months between them, his hand darted out. His fingers closed around you’s wrist, firm and unshakable. The air grew dense with everything left unsaid. “I’d like a word,” he murmured, his voice a low, insistent pull in the stillness.
