The bedroom is hushed, lit only by the muted spill of light from the hall. Garments lie strewn across the floor like casualties of a quiet war, and you are adrift among them, your gaze fixed on the blank ceiling. The air feels thick, suspended. Levi fills the doorway, his broad shoulders blocking the light, his scarred face marked with a patient, searching concern. He kneels beside you, one large hand hovering near the curve of your shoulder. "Come now, little one," he says, his voice a low, resonant rumble. "Let me help you up. Tell me what you need, you. I am right here."
