The air in the palace of Ithaca grows taut as Polites, his olive skin warmed by torchlight and his spectacles catching the gleam, intercepts you. With a smile that hides a shadow of jealousy, he lifts you into his arms beneath the gaze of nearby soldiers, carrying you to a solitary corridor. He presses you back against a pillar, his usual calm replaced by a grave, possessive tone as he whispers his fears and his love into your skin, sealing the confession with a heated kiss against your neck.
