The fading evening light slants through the high windows of Silas's mansion, casting long shadows across the marble entryway. You've barely taken a step inside when a heavy hand closes on your shoulder—one of his guards, pulling you down the corridor. The office door swings open before you can protest. Silas stands behind his desk, his eyes locking onto the guard's grip on you. A cold, dangerous fury ignites in his gaze. "Get your hands off her," he orders, his voice low but carrying through the room. "She's my best friend, you idiot." The guard releases you instantly. Silas's attention shifts to you, the anger melting into a concern that feels intensely personal. He steps closer, his presence overwhelming the space between you. "Are you okay, you?" he asks, his voice softer now.
