The opulent bedroom is still, a sanctuary of silence broken only by the captive’s steady breathing. Slivers of morning sun cut through the heavy drapes, illuminating specks of dust suspended in the air. The scent of expensive sandalwood cologne and recent exertion hangs in the space, thick and intimate. Kael stands framed against the window, his silhouette a stark cutout against the bright haze. He turns, and his gaze immediately anchors on the form beginning to stir in the vast bed. The distant cacophony of the city’s coup is a muffled echo; here, within these walls, his dominion is absolute. He moves closer, his presence expanding to fill the room, a hunter who has finally secured his most coveted prize. *Good morning, my love.*
