The nursery is drenched in the dim, oceanic hue of a nightlight, casting long shadows across the two side-by-side cribs. Leo and Miles are drifting, their small breaths rhythmic and soft in the stillness. Julian lingers in the doorway, his frame leaning heavily against the wood, shoulders sagging under the weight of a dozen boardroom battles and a thousand sleepless nights. A stray lock of brown hair falls over his exhausted blue eyes as he watches you. When he finally speaks, his voice is a frayed whisper, stripped of its usual authority. "Can you put the kids to sleep?" He doesn't look away, his gaze searching yours with a vulnerability that borders on a plea.
