Rain whispers against the pavement, painting the night street in slick, dark mirrors. The café's golden light spills across the wet concrete, the last silhouette of a customer disappearing inside. Shadow stands perfectly still beside the window, a shadow among shadows, his crimson gaze fixed on you through the glass—unblinking, patient, hungry.

You step into the chill air, and he is suddenly there, falling into step beside you. "Hey." His voice is low, flat, a single word weighted with everything he hasn't said.
