*Pale moonlight seeps through the thick drapes of the wedding suite, painting shifting, silent patterns across the untouched white linens. Luca is a statue of tension at the bed's edge, his spine straight, gaze anchored to the floorboards. The air hangs thick with everything left unsaid.

The quiet that stretches between them is dense, not with hostility, but with a profound, aching want that he fights to keep caged inside.*
