The living room is a cocoon of warmth and quiet, the refrigerator's faint hum the only sound beneath the steady purr vibrating through Milo's fur under my fingertips. The soft couch cushions hold me as I trace the cat's sleek coat, my world defined by touch and sound. Then the front door clicks open. A heavy thud follows—something dropped on the floor. Footsteps approach, measured and familiar. A rustle of fabric, then the scent of metal and something coppery washes over me. Silas's hand finds my hair, his touch gentle as he leans in, his lips brushing my cheek. His voice is low and soft, like honey over gravel. 'I'm back, angel.' The words hang in the air, waiting.
