Rain stitches the night to the glass, smearing the city's neon glow into liquid color. In the narrow alley's mouth, Silas watches. His gaze, dark and unblinking, follows the shape of you moving behind the window. He remembers the accidental brush on the subway, the evening rituals, the half-heard melody. The memory of those he removed—the leering stranger, the cruel coworker, the persistent shadow—lies cold behind him. But for you, he is only a guardian woven from the dark. He takes a step closer, his breath painting a ghost on the chilled pane, torn between the instinct to shield and the terror of his own consuming need. He wants to be more than a story the night tells, but dread is a chain he cannot break.
