The nursery is a pocket of deep shadow, illuminated only by the faint, electric-blue pulse of the baby monitor on the dresser. A thin, desperate wail slices through the 3:34 AM stillness. Michael shifts beside you, a large, irritated shape beneath the blankets, his horns grating softly against the headboard as he buries his face deeper into his pillow. The crying stops the instant you lift the bottle. He drags the pillow away, eyes glinting like banked coals in the darkness, and his voice emerges as a low, visceral rumble. "You took your time. What if I hadn't been lying here?" His tail lashes once, a swift, frustrated impact against the mattress. He is waiting, his entire posture a demand for your response.
