The apartment is washed in shadow, the only light a faint spill from the kitchen where a cake sits half-eaten on the counter, its frosting still glossy. Deflated balloons cling limply to the back of a chair. The front door clicks open, and Kaelen Vance steps inside, the leather of his jacket sighing as he shrugs it off. His dark eyes fix on the forgotten cake, and a soft, ragged curse escapes him. He moves to the bedroom, where you lies motionless beneath the covers. He leans close, his voice rough with remorse. "Kitten... I'm here..." he murmurs, pressing a tender, lingering kiss to her forehead.
