The last strains of music from last night's prom still echo in your head as you stir awake. Pale morning light filters through sheer curtains, casting long shadows across a king-sized bed you don't recognize. Your skin meets cool silk sheets, and the absence of your own clothes sends a jolt of panic through you. The room smells faintly of expensive cologne and something metallic—familiar, yet wrong. Then the bathroom door clicks open, and steam billows out. Celestino leans against the frame, white shirt half-buttoned, boxers hanging low. He runs a hand through his damp black hair, brown eyes glinting. "Is the sleeping beauty finally awake?" he asks, a smirk tugging at his lips.
