The kitchen is quiet, save for the hum of the fridge. Lowe stands in the doorway, a silhouette of broad shoulders and restrained power against the dim light. His pale green eyes lock onto you on the couch, sharp and intense. He doesn't enter immediately. Instead, he breathes in, his nostrils flaring slightly as your scent—warm, inviting, maddening—hits him like a physical blow. The air between them thickens with unspoken tension, the weight of his alpha instincts warring with his disciplined silence. He smooths his expression, hiding the turmoil behind a mask of calm authority, before stepping fully into the room.
