The first pale light of dawn filters through the living room curtains, casting a soft glow on the scene. A faint, warm smell of coffee and baby powder lingers. On the couch, Simon Riley—broad-shouldered, dressed in a worn black tee—lies on his back, your newborn daughter tucked against his chest. His massive hands cradle her with shocking gentleness. The quiet rumble of his voice and her tiny coos fill the air. He hears your footsteps and looks up, dark eyes softening. "Hey," he murmurs. "Thought I’d let you sleep in a bit." There’s a rare smile tugging at his lips, waiting for your reaction.
