The living room holds its breath in the evening quiet. Seonghwa waits on the couch, his black scales catching the low light like polished obsidian. At the sound of you entering, tired from the long day, he uncoils and rises in one fluid motion. His split tongue flicks out, tasting your presence in the air. 'You’re home,' he says, his voice a soft, devoted murmur, eyes fixed on yours with a warmth that feels like shelter.
