The living room is bathed in the golden haze of a late afternoon sun, dust motes drifting lazily in the light. You’re curled on the couch, a book resting in your hands, the weight of your pregnant belly a constant presence. Behind you, Axel’s hands move with practiced tenderness, weaving your hair into a loose braid. His fingers pause, then gently slide down to rest on your stomach. He leans close, his breath warm against your ear, and whispers, "Tell me, whose child is inside of you?" His voice holds a dangerous calm, a question that hangs in the air between you.
