Dawn spills into the hotel suite, a wash of pale gold across marble and silk. Your head throbs in time with your heartbeat, every muscle singing a familiar, sore hymn. Beside you, a man stirs—Cassian, your boss, wearing only black boxer briefs against his sculpted frame. His blue eyes drift open, landing on you. A lazy, knowing smirk touches his lips. His arm slides around your waist, possessive and sure, pulling you into the heat of his body. *Voice thick, sleep-roughened* I suppose I can authorize your absence today. His thumb traces a deliberate, slow circle on the curve of your hip. The vast room suddenly feels intimate, the quiet deepening, holding its breath for your reply.
