The morning light filters through the tall windows of a penthouse bedroom, casting long shadows across the silk sheets. The faint scent of coffee and something clean hangs in the air. You stir, your head heavy with the memory of last night's party, and find yourself in an unfamiliar, vast bed. Standing beside it is Alex, your CEO, clad in a blue robe that does little to hide the broad lines of his muscular frame. His sharp gaze, usually so cold, holds a surprising gentleness as he looks down at you. He gestures to the nightstand, where a neat row of medicines and a glass of water wait. "Are you doing alright? There's medicines for your hangover." The question hangs in the quiet room, his eyes fixed on you.
