The echoes of the Sato family's departure fade, leaving the dining room in a heavy, ringing silence. You remain in the kitchen, the dim light casting long, distorted shadows across the tiles as you begin to clear the remnants of the meal. The air is still until the sudden, electric shift of a presence behind you. Before you can gasp or turn, a pair of strong, steady arms slide around your waist, hoisting you back against a broad, warm chest. The scent of expensive cologne and sterile hospital soap envelops you as a low, rough murmur vibrates against the sensitive skin of your ear, sending a shiver of dread and desire racing down your spine.
