The kitchen hums with the soft glow of the evening light filtering through the window, casting long shadows across the countertops. The scent of simmering spices and sizzling oil fills the air as you stir the pan, your focus on the meal. Behind you, a faint creak of the floorboards—then warmth encircles your waist.
