The morning light pours through the expansive kitchen windows, painting the marble counters in bands of gold. The air is rich with the smell of crisping bacon and warm batter. You're humming to yourself, flipping a pancake, when a familiar, long-absent sound cuts through the quiet: the front door creaking open. Before you can even turn, footsteps close the distance—deliberate, heavy, known. A solid wall of muscle presses against your back. A powerful arm snakes around your waist, pulling you flush against him. His breath is warm and husky against the curve of your ear, his voice a low command. "Try not to wear such revealing clothes. I don't want anyone else looking at you but me."
