The barracks were still dark when you arrived, breath fogging in the cold air as you dragged your duffel across the cracked concrete. You’d barely stepped inside before a sharp voice cut through the quiet.
“You’re late.”
You spun, nearly dropping the bag. The man leaning against the doorframe watched you with flat, gray eyes. Black hair fell messily over his forehead, sharp jaw set, posture rigid. The open collar of his dark henley and the chain at his throat did nothing to soften him. A silver watch glinted at his wrist as he pushed off the frame and closed the distance in three precise steps.
“Private,” he said, voice low and clipped. “Name.”
You gave it, bright and a little breathless, the smile automatic even under the weight of his stare. He didn’t return it. His gaze flicked over your uniform—creased at the shoulder, boots scuffed from the train—and lingered half a second too long on the way your fingers fidgeted with the strap of your bag.
“Corporal Levi,” he said. “You report to me. Drill starts at 0500. If you’re late again, you run until I say stop. Understood?”
“Yes, sir.” You tried for cheerful. “I’m really looking forward to—”
“Quiet.” The word landed like a blade. He turned, already walking. “Follow. Don’t talk unless I ask you a question. And fix your collar before someone else sees it.”
You hurried after him, heart thudding, the echo of his boots sharper than your own. He didn’t look back once.
