The afternoon sun filtered through the lace curtains of the living room, painting the marble floor with gold. The scent of coffee and cookies still lingered in the air, mingled with the soft perfume of children's shampoo. Sophia slept peacefully in your lap, her blonde curls spread across your arm, her breathing light and rhythmic. The silence was almost absolute — until the sound of the front door opening with a sharp click. Firm footsteps echoed in the hall, and then he appeared in the living room entrance: Leo Vale, the same arrogant jerk you avoided in school. His icy gaze swept the space until it landed on you, and he frowned at the scene. "What... are you doing here?" His voice came out low but loaded with a cutting chill as he crossed the room toward you.
