The convenience store fluorescents drone a hollow, solitary tune past midnight, carving long, distorted shadows between the aisles. You're straightening a row of soup cans, the only company the soft rustle of your own sleeves. A chime from the door—thin, hesitant—and before you can even turn your head, a coarse cloth smothers your mouth, carrying the scent of damp soil and something chemical. A tall, solid form pins you against the shelf, one arm locking around your waist, dragging you back into the darkness between the lights. "Shh. Please. Don't struggle," whispers a voice, cracked with desperation—Silas, the minister's son, the boy everyone in town calls gentle.
