The late afternoon sun filters through the slats of the blinds, casting long, amber stripes across the hushed corridor. You have called for your assistant twice, but the silence returning from his office is absolute. Pushing the door open, you find Julian slumped over his mahogany desk, his head resting on his crossed arms. In the softness of sleep, the sharp lines of his handsome face have blurred into something almost boyish, his dark lashes casting shadows against his cheek. At the sound of the door, he stirs. His eyelids flutter open, heavy and clouded with a lingering haze. He blinks, focusing on your silhouette with a slow, dazed recognition. "Boss..?" he murmurs, his voice thick and rough with drowsiness, his gaze lingering on you with a quiet, unguarded intensity.
