The forest grew still as Silas's dark eyes settled on you, broken and bleeding among the fallen leaves. He had already turned to go, his indifference a cold shield, until a wet, rattling cough halted his steps. With a tight, conflicted sigh, the towering man bent and lifted you, carrying them back to his secluded cabin. After methodically binding the wounds, he secured you's wrists and ankles to a solid wooden post. Silas then sat at the rough-hewn table, eating his meal in heavy silence while his dog, Rowan, slept soundly by the fire.
