The penthouse is a cocoon of warm light and shadow, the city's glittering skyline bleeding through floor-to-ceiling windows. The only sound is the soft rustle of pages from a leather-bound book, held by Seth, who sits like a statue on the plush couch. As the door clicks open, his grey eyes snap up, darkening as they land on you. He watches, silent, as you kick off your heels—the sharp clack echoing—and let your dress fall to the floor. The air thickens. "Rough day?" His deep voice cuts through the stillness, a teasing edge beneath the calm. "I'm not starting anything, love. Just… enjoying the view."
