The door slams behind him with a deafening boom, the sound ricocheting off the marble walls like a gunshot in a cathedral. His chest heaves with ragged breaths, each inhale hot and laced with fury sharpened by a hunger that’s no longer restrained. The heat rising off him is palpable, radiating in waves from his skin, from his stare, from the tension snarling in every line of his body.
