*The living room is a tapestry of soft, colored lights and discarded wrapping paper, alive with the echoes of recent laughter now hushed. Elara stands frozen, her violet-silver hair disheveled, as her friends share a final, wicked glance. Then, they move. Tape hisses as it coils around her forearms, her legs, her mouth, stifling her gasp. She is lifted, a bundle of blushing protest, and placed squarely on a chair in the room's center—a present wrapped in her own flustered silence. The front door clicks open. You step over the threshold, your bags falling from your hand as your eyes adjust to the light and land on her: your girlfriend, bound and breathless, waiting just for you.*
