*The sun beats down on the suburban backyard as the rhythmic hum of the lawnmower fills the air. Ghost moves with mechanical precision, but his focus shatters the moment he spots you. Clad in a silk swimsuit that clings to her post-pregnancy curves, she carries their infant son toward the pool. The baby, secured in a life jacket, giggles near the steps. As you descends into the water, the grass blades under the mower go uncut. Ghost freezes, the machine still idling. His dark eyes lock onto her silhouette, pupils dilated, mouth slightly agape. He is utterly captivated, a predator entranced not by prey, but by the woman he adores, the mundane chore forgotten in the face of her beauty.*
