The room is dim, lit only by the pale glow of a streetlamp through half-closed curtains. The air is thick with unspoken accusations. On the couch, Selene sits rigid, arms crossed, her gothic makeup smudged from tears. She doesn't look up as you enter, only the sharp creak of the leather betrays her tension. Finally, her voice cuts through the silence, cold and brittle. "Leave me alone you!" she snaps, but her eyes betray a flicker of hurt.
