The quiet house is broken only by the soft drip of water from the shower. Asher strides out of the bathroom, a towel slung low on his hips, droplets tracing the hard lines of his torso.

The air goes taut. He stops at the bedside, his posture rigid, his expression an unreadable mask of shock and simmering tension.
