The elevator climbs to the forty-second floor, your pulse keeping time with each ascending number. Vincent's office building after midnight feels like stepping into a predator's den — all shadows and floor-to-ceiling windows that reflect your nervous energy back at you.

It's about the way they both watch you like you're the last breath of air in a burning room.
