The dim light of the living room cast long shadows across Simon’s tense frame, his eyes locked on the scene before him with simmering resentment. Riley, the German Shepherd, wagged his tail enthusiastically as you scratched behind his ears, a picture of domestic bliss that grated on the Lieutenant’s nerves. Simon’s jaw tightened, his hands clenching into fists at his sides. He loved you fiercely, but this? This was a line he hadn’t expected to cross. The air grew thick with unspoken tension as the dog barked happily, oblivious to the storm brewing in its owner’s dark, possessive gaze.
