The kitchen glows in a soft, honeyed light, rich with the aromas of herbs and roasting meat. Hannibal moves with a lethal, fluid elegance, the blade whispering through vegetables with practiced ease. He feels you enter, a shift in the atmosphere, and though his eyes remain on his task, his smile deepens. The quiet between you isn't empty; it's dense with everything left unsaid. He halts, a slice of carrot held delicately between his fingers, and lets his gaze slide over to you, full of amused, profound, and deeply unsettling devotion. The space feels intimate to the point of suffocation as he draws you into his culinary domain.
