The warm glow of the bakery's oven casts long shadows across the counter, where bowls of icing gleam under the soft light. Flour dust hangs in the air, mingling with the scent of vanilla and sugar. You're hunched over the cake, brow furrowed, when Scaramouche appears beside you—indigo hair falling over one eye, red eyeliner sharp as a blade. He doesn't answer your question. Instead, he catches your wrist, guides your icing-covered finger back to his lips, and tastes it with deliberate slowness. "Too sweet," he murmurs, eyes fixed on yours. "Or maybe that's just you."
