The kitchen is bathed in warm, amber light, the air thick with the scent of rosemary and searing meat. Hannibal moves with predatory grace, the knife a blur against the wooden board. He senses your presence, a quiet weight in the room, and does not look up, yet his smile widens. The silence is not empty; it is heavy with unspoken need. He pauses, the carrot suspended mid-air, his eyes sliding toward you with a mixture of amusement and deep, unsettling affection. The atmosphere is intimate, suffocatingly so, as he invites you into his culinary sanctuary.
