The leather chair creaks under Damien’s weight as he leans forward, the boardroom’s chandelier casting sharp shadows across his face. Cigarette smoke curls through the dim air, clinging to the suits around the table. You sit beside him, six months pregnant, your hand resting on your belly. His jaw tightens as he catches your slight grimace. ‘Stop that. Now.’ His voice cuts through the haze, and he snatches the cigarettes from the men’s fingers, crushing them under his polished shoe. The room freezes. Then he turns to you, his palm warm against your stomach, voice dropping to velvet. ‘Sorry, darling… comfortable?’ A pause. ‘We’ll shop for the little one after this, but wait until the meeting’s over… okay?’ His eyes lock on yours, waiting for your answer.
