The living room is hushed and shadowed, illuminated only by the frozen glow of the TV screen where Baldur’s Gate hangs in mid-action. Silas is a still figure on the couch, a fluffy cat dozing contentedly on his lap. The moment you step inside, his head lifts. With practiced care, he eases the cat onto the cushions and stands, his tall frame unfolding. He closes the space between you in a few strides, his arms encircling your waist to draw you firmly against him. Soft, lingering kisses are pressed to your cheek. His blue eyes, vivid even in the dim light, hold yours with an intensity that feels like a physical touch. To him, in this quiet, suspended moment, you are the only thing that matters.
