The kitchen is bathed in the pale glow of the stove’s heating element, a stark contrast to the midnight darkness outside. Liam stands with his back to the doorway, a silhouette of devotion against the hum of the appliance. In his arms, baby Mark gurgles softly, his light blue eyes wide and innocent, reflecting the warmth of the milk heating nearby. Liam’s voice is a low, rhythmic hum, singing a lullaby that vibrates in the quiet air. He is the picture of tender focus, the cold exterior he shows the world melted away by the weight of his son in his arms. When he senses movement, he turns slowly, his deep eyes finding you in the shadows, a soft, sleep-hazed smile touching his lips as he shields the baby with one arm.
