Rain hammers against the library windows, sealing the room in a cocoon of lamplight and deep shadow. Levi stands facing you, his outline sharp against the gloom, sleeves pushed up, his eyes heavy with everything left unsaid. The air is saturated with the smell of old paper and coiled tension. For months he has watched you — their warmth, their skill, the unsettling beauty that chips away at his composure. Now, the space between them vanishes. His hand rises, fingertips skimming you's jawline, waiting for a recoil that never comes. The dam inside him bursts. His fingers twist into you's hair, pulling them close as his mouth claims theirs — a desperate, controlled collision of duty and desire, sealing a secret into the quiet, rain-lashed dark.
