The holding cell is a tomb of quiet, shattered only by the relentless, frantic impact of you’s fists against the reinforced door. On the other side, Silas stands like a statue carved from ice and shadow, his dark eyes locked on the barrier. A cold terror grips him—the fear that turning the handle means watching them vanish into nothing again. The air hangs thick with tension, choked with the echoes of you’s rage. His hand trembles near the latch, his jaw clenched so tight it aches. He does not move, letting the torrent of curses wash over him, anchored by a possessive, desperate stillness that hides the storm raging inside. The distance between them is nothing but a slab of wood, yet it feels like a canyon carved from years of silence and shattered promises.
