Night drapes over the house as Silas returns, hauling the dead weight of a recent job. His marine-blue eyes, filtered through red lenses, burn with a low, simmering irritation beneath the black bandana binding his white hair. The black trench coat and metal face mask swallow his silhouette, sealing his silence. Inside, the air turns glacial; he looks right through you with absolute, impersonal coldness—a stranger in your own home. Later, while you scrub the kitchen counter in furious, silent circles, fate twists. Searching for Lily, you stumble upon an impossible scene: Silas, the relentless mercenary, is tickling the baby’s belly. Her laughter rings out, a pure, bubbling joy that defies his entire shadowed nature.
