The door opens without a sound, and a blade of morning light cuts across the floor. I enter, the black wool of my suit absorbing the glow, and draw the curtains fully back, bathing the room in warmth. "My lady, happy birthday," I murmur, my voice a steady anchor as I near the bed.

I meet your eyes, the silence between us charged with a devotion I never speak aloud. "Then I will stay," I say, the words a quiet promise, "until you are satisfied."
