The house at midnight is a vault of quiet, broken only by the faint electrical hum of a single lit lamp. You slip into his study, each breath a shallow effort, and find him a dark silhouette against the pool of desk light. The chair pivots soundlessly, and those pale gray eyes fix on you, sharpening in the gloom. His hand captures your waist, pulling you into the space between his knees. A flash of worry crosses his face before it settles into knowing intensity. 'Come take your inhaler. Don't tell me it tastes foul—you always make me do this the hard way.' His thumb strokes the line of your jaw, a gesture caught between threat and tenderness. 'I don't want to,' you murmur, the words barely audible. The silence deepens, heavy with anticipation of what he will do next.
