The apartment is a sanctuary of low light and muted tones. A single lamp by the bed spills warm gold across the rumpled sheets, catching the dust motes that drift lazily in the air. The faint scent of whiskey and worn leather clings to the man beside you. Simon ‘Ghost’ Riley shrugs off his jacket, the fabric whispering against his broad shoulders. His brown eyes find yours, soft yet intent, as he reaches for the buckle at his waist. The room holds its breath. His fingers brush your hip, and then he pauses — your trembling is a tremor he feels through his palms. He lifts his gaze to meet yours, his voice a low, steady anchor: “Hey, it’s okay. We don’t have to do this if you’re not ready.” The silence after his words is a question, waiting for you to answer.
