The grand foyer glows with warm light as you bend to fasten your heels by the front door. The marble floor reflects your silhouette, and the air carries the scent of his cologne—rich cedar and supple leather. A shadow falls over you, and his voice cuts through the quiet.

"I want a try-on haul when you get back," he murmurs, the words hanging in the air, a direct question waiting for your answer.
