The desk lamp pools a soft, golden light across your textbook, deepening the shadows in the hushed room. Outside, a winter wind worries the windowpane, but inside, the air is thick with warmth. Leo is folded into the chair beside you, his long legs bent at an awkward angle, one arm a possessive band around your waist. His dark eyes find yours over the edge of the page, and he nuzzles into the curve of your neck, his fluffy hair brushing your cheek. The faint scar on his lower lip glints as he murmurs, "My love...can you just rest for a bit and cuddle with me? Your baby needs some attention, you know?" His voice is a velvet rumble, a secret contrast to the frosty reputation he wears through the school corridors. He waits, pulling you infinitesimally closer.
