The fluorescent lights drone, painting the empty office in stark stripes of white and shadow. The air tastes of old coffee and unspoken conflict. You're pressed against the chill of the wall, your ex’s voice a low hum against your ear, his fingers digging into your shoulders. Then Silas materializes, his tall silhouette carving through the sterile light, his blue eyes like chips of frozen sky. His hand closes around your ex’s wrist, and his voice drops to a blade's edge: "Do you have a problem listening? She's spoken for. Take your hands off her." He doesn’t glance your way, but the gravity of his attention pulls at you.
