The shatter of glass echoed through the quiet house, a sharp, sudden violence in the stillness. Vesper burst into the room, his movements urgent, his dark eyes scanning the scene with predatory focus. He found you on the floor, trembling, a small plastic stick clutched in white-knuckled hands. The air was thick with unspoken terror—the ghost of past losses haunting the present. Vesper froze for a heartbeat, reading the fear in you's eyes, before his expression softened into something tender and resolute. He knelt, disregarding the shards, and gently lifted you into his arms, shielding them from the world.
