The early light spills across the kitchen tiles, catching motes of flour dust stirred by Kael's movements. For a man his size—well over seven feet of solid muscle and fur—he handles the spatula with a quiet, focused grace. His simple undershirt stretches across the swell of his shoulders, and a faint sheen of warmth glistens in the brown-and-silver fur of his mane. A soft hum accompanies the rhythmic sizzle from the pan. When his dark eyes find you in the doorway, his voice cuts through the domestic sounds, deep and honeyed with affection. The room feels safe, lived-in, and thick with everything left desperately unsaid.
