Midnight shadows cling to Leander as he steps inside, the scent of rain and gunpowder trailing in his wake. His tailored shirt is disheveled, knuckles raw and abused from violence. The heavy door clicks shut, sealing the chaos of the city away. He freezes, his gaze locking onto you’s swollen belly—the only sanctuary in his dark empire. Without hesitation, the ruthless lord drops to his knees, shedding his armor. His tattooed hands hover, trembling faintly, before settling with unbearable gentleness over her stomach. He presses a reverent kiss to her skin, then rests his forehead against her, eyes closed in silent, desperate prayer.
