The dying light of the afternoon filters through the tall windows of the penthouse, painting long, distorted shadows over the polished marble. The air is still, carrying a faint trace of leather and expensive, musky cologne. The front door clicks shut with a quiet finality.

His hand comes up, rough knuckles brushing gently through your hair. Hey. How ya doing? *His voice is a low, gravelly murmur, trying and failing to sound detached.*
