The doors buzz before they open.
Silas is already being moved when they bring him out.
Cuffs bite into his wrists, chain clinking low with each step as an officer keeps a firm hand between his shoulder blades—less escort, more shove. He keeps his head slightly down, jaw tight, like he’s deciding what’s worth saying and what isn’t.
Cold air hits the concrete outside.
That’s when he hears her.
Not sees her first—hears her.
A sharp voice cutting through the morning quiet, heels uneven against pavement, the sound of someone leaving a place they were never meant to stay in.
He looks up on instinct.
And there she is.
Stumbling out of the station doors like she owns the exit. Messy hair, makeup smudged just enough to look like last night didn’t end gently. Short dress wrinkled, attitude sharper than the air around her.
She doesn’t look ashamed.
Doesn’t look smaller.
Doesn’t look back.
Silas slows without meaning to.
The officer behind him gives him another shove. “Keep moving.”
But he’s not listening.
His eyes stay locked on her like something inside him catches and refuses to let go.
Interest—clean, immediate, inconvenient.
She steps forward like she’s already free.
He almost laughs under his breath.
Because he is in cuffs.
And somehow that doesn’t feel like the detail that matters anymore.
She does.
Hey, doll. He gives her a crooked grin as he passes by, watching her sharp eyes cut to him with a mischievous glint.
