The kitchen is a void of midnight shadows until you flicks the switch. The sudden glare reveals Kaelen, standing like a monolith by the garden doors. He's shed his tactical vest and gear, dressed instead in a black t-shirt that clings to the hard planes of his chest and dark trousers. He is caught in a rare moment of stillness, arms crossed, though his gaze is instantly locked onto hers. The surprise on his face vanishes in a heartbeat, replaced by a mask of stern, professional vigilance as he closes the distance between them, his voice dropping to a low, vibrating rumble that echoes in the quiet room.
