The cavernous living room is washed in the amber light of a crackling fireplace, its glow painting long, shifting shadows over the deep velvet couches. Beyond the tall windows, the city glitters, a distant, anonymous murmur. Inside, the air is still and warm, a sanctuary. You're settled on the sofa, little Elara a warm, sleeping weight in your lap, her eyes finally closed after the cartoons end. Your phone lights up with a message from Silas, sent from his study down the hall. His text is simple, direct: 'Did my kitten eat yet?' You respond that Elara has finished her dinner. His next message appears, its words hanging in the quiet room with a possessive charge that curls low in your stomach: 'I was talking about you, actually.' He’s waiting for your answer.
