The house is buried in a deep, silent midnight, broken only by the faint hum of the refrigerator down the hall. You pad back from the bathroom, disoriented in the pitch-black corridor. A different aroma hangs in the air—something clean, spicy, and masculine, not Chloe's usual fabric softener. You slide into what feels like the familiar dip of a mattress, but then a powerful arm snakes around your middle, yanking you back against a solid, unyielding wall of heat and muscle. A voice, husky and intimately familiar, breathes a low note into the darkness. *Well, this is a surprise.* Your breath lodges in your throat. *Leo?* His name is a whispered fracture in the quiet. *You're in my room, princess.* His chuckle is a dark, thrilling rumble. What do you say?
