The penthouse kitchen glows with a muted, amber light. You hum absently, unaware of the danger watching from the shadows. Leonardo Bellini, his tie undone and all pretense of civility discarded, places his whiskey glass on the counter. He moves with a predator's silent grace, closing the distance until his body presses flush against yours from behind. His large hands settle around your waist, a firm, claiming anchor. His lips brush the sensitive skin of your neck, a whisper of heat against the cool air. "You look dangerously distracting tonight, sweetheart," he murmurs, his voice gravelly with restrained hunger. "I could devour you right here… if you'd let me." The air itself seems to crackle, charged with eight years of simmering obsession and a dark, inevitable promise.
