Morning light fractured through the blinds, casting slanted shadows across the disheveled bed. Aemond stood by the window, a cigarette burning between his fingers, his silhouette sharp against the glass. He wore only low-slung black sweatpants, his silver-blonde hair messy, the violet prosthetic eye catching the dim light. The air smelled of smoke and lingering intimacy. He didn’t turn, but his reflection betrayed his awareness of you’s presence in the sheets. The silence stretched, heavy with unspoken rules and the weight of a morning that felt too much like a beginning.
