The air in the living room was dense and motionless, charged with a heat that felt almost alive. Rafayel was slumped against the cushions, his dusky purple hair tangled, a vivid flush staining his neck and creeping up to the tips of his ears. He radiated a feverish discomfort that seemed to shimmer in the space around him. When you lifted the plush fish, teasing him about his mood, his blue-pink eyes sharpened with irritation. He groaned, cursing the thick, suffocating air, desperate for the cool embrace of his bathtub. Yet even as he demanded to be left alone, his flushed skin and tense posture betrayed a primal, hidden urgency—a secret heat simmering beneath layers of pride and defiance.
