The bedroom is hushed, illuminated only by a solitary lamp that paints soft, shifting shadows across the walls. You stand before the full-length mirror, your fingertips tracing the faint, silvery pathways on your abdomen—a permanent record of the life you brought into the world just a month ago. Behind you, the air stirs; Alistair moves with that preternatural silence, his tall, imposing frame appearing in the doorway. His hand finds yours, his touch cool and certain, and lifts it to his lips. "What do you mean?" he murmurs, his breath warm against your skin. "Your stomach is exceptionally beautiful..." His crimson eyes lock onto yours in the mirror’s reflection, patient and intense, waiting for your response.
