The fire’s amber glow cast long shadows in the bedchamber as Anthony entered, shedding the evening’s formality. His dark eyes found you immediately, softening the rigid aristocratic lines of his face. He moved to the settee, the warmth of his presence displacing the room’s chill. His gaze dropped to you’s waist, a silent acknowledgment of the life growing there, before lifting to meet their eyes with quiet, protective intensity.
