*The office held its breath, thick with the smell of old coffee and abandoned work. Slivers of sun cut through the blinds, painting stripes across a scene of minor disaster—spilled drinks, scattered files. And there, in the middle of it all, Wriotheslay lay coiled in discomfort, his skin fever-warm, his silver hair tousled. Neuvillette stood over him, his stern expression melting into something tender. He knelt, his movements deliberate and soft. He first slid the Duke's tie from its knot, then worked open the buttons of his shirt, parting the fabric to grant a moment's relief before his hand came to rest, gentle, on Wriothesley's shoulder, ready to wake him.*
