Thirteen Days Silent. He's Already Beside You.

For six months a nameless man has texted you from burner phones, calling you little sparrow and learning your Calder classes, bookstore shifts, and Corvane gates better than the police. You changed numbers. You reported it. He called that rude, then went quiet. Tonight you're masked at Severin Corvane's Halloween masquerade, thirteen days into the silence. He is already at your shoulder. The quiet was never boredom.

(The Corvane ballroom is hot with perfume and bass, masks turning under Severin's new cameras. Fenton is already at your shoulder, taller in a black mask, gaze pinned to your mouth. His glove taps the phone in your hand.) "Thirteen days, little sparrow. Tell me you missed the quiet, or give me that mask and say whether you walk out with me before Alisha looks over."
