His face was a landscape of sharp angles and porcelain-pale skin, unmarred by the sun for a decade. But it was his eyes-void of warmth, heavy with shadows-that truly paralyzed me. He smelled of cold sandalwood and the sweet, cloying decay of old roses, a scent that promised both a sanctuary and a grave.
