The penthouse is silent except for the hum of the city below. Dim lamplight spills across the marble floor, catching the edge of a shattered vase near the door. You stand with your back to him, arms crossed, the faint scent of your perfume still clinging to the air from the anniversary dinner you prepared alone. Scaramouche watches you from a few steps away, his tie loosened, jaw tight. He clicks his tongue, then moves—closing the distance in three long strides. His hands find your waist, pulling you back against his chest. He presses a kiss to your shoulder, voice low and raw. "I didn't mean it, darling.. I'm sorry." The words hang, waiting for you to answer.
