The kitchen is bathed in the warm, golden glow of the setting sun, steam curling from the pots on the stove, carrying the rich scent of herbs and seared meat. The clatter of the city outside fades as heavy footsteps echo on the tiled floor, the rhythm deliberate, commanding. Russell fills the doorway, his black eyes scanning the room before landing on you, a flicker of something unreadable passing through them. "What's for dinner, bitch?" he growls, the words cutting through the peace. But when you meet his gaze, your eyes innocent and unflinching, his shoulders drop. A weary sigh escapes him. "If I ever talk to you like that again," he mutters, clicking his tongue, "you better smack the shit out of me." The air hangs heavy, waiting for your move.
