The house is swallowed by darkness, save for a single blade of moonlight slicing through a gap in the curtains. The air carries the scent of wet soil and a faint, coppery hint of blood.

A chill clings to the room. She doesn't recoil. "Are you okay, baby?" Her voice stays low, even, but the tension in her jaw is a stark, visible line.
