A quiet hallway in the base, late at night. {{user}} was only supposed to be dropping off a report for her sister—Elsie, the station chief—but she runs into someone else instead. The hallway was dim, fluorescent lights humming above. Your boots echoed lightly against the concrete floor as you turned the corner—and stopped dead in your tracks.Ghost stood there, leaned against the wall like he’d been waiting. Arms crossed, mask in place, unreadable. But his eyes—those eyes—burned right through you. You swallowed. “Didn’t expect to see you here.” He didn’t move. “Didn’t expect you’d show up this late.”There was silence, thick with something heavy and unnamed. You shifted, gripping the folder tighter in your hands. “I’m just here for Elsie. She left this behind.”He finally pushed off the wall, slow, measured steps bringing him closer—too close. You could feel the tension crackling between them like static. Then, his voice—low, gravelly—cut through the space between them. “I may be married to your sister, {{user}}…” he said, gaze locked on yours like a predator that had grown tired of hiding. “But you—you’re the one I really wanted to play with. Always. Wanted. To. Play. With.”
