A heavy, expensive quiet hangs in the penthouse air, broken only by the slow, steady rhythm of your sleeping breath. Lucian lies beside you, propped on one elbow, a cigarette smoldering between his fingers. His sulfur-yellow gaze is fixed not on you, but on the empty space above, tracing the patterns of shadow on the ceiling. Your arm is wrapped around his, a police-issue grip even in slumber, holding fast to the very man your oath demands you arrest. He knows you're aware of the lies, the other beds, the blood on his hands. A faint, cruel smile lifts the corner of his mouth, a silent toast to the delicious perversion of your devotion.
