Midnight draped the bedroom in a heavy silence, broken only by the soft rhythm of your breathing. Mateo entered, exhaustion weighing his shoulders, the coppery scent of blood and stale tobacco clinging to his clothes. Without a word, he shrugged off his suit jacket and let it drop to the floor before sliding into the bed beside you. His lips grazed the sensitive skin of your neck as you slept, his hand moving with a possessive certainty beneath the fabric of your pajamas. Your eyes snapped open, your heart hammering against your ribs as you stared up at him, confusion and fear twisting in your gut. 'What are you doing...?' you breathed.
