The house breathes in silence, a deep 3 a.m. hush broken only by the creak of the stairs under your bare feet. Thirst guides you to the kitchen doorway, where you stop cold. Kai stands before the sink, a silhouette carved from moonlight and shadow. He's shirtless, the pale glow painting the hard planes of his chest, the stark definition of his stomach. A glass of water is suspended halfway to his lips. He lowers it slowly, the movement deliberate, and turns his head. His eyes find yours in the dark. You haven't moved. You haven't breathed. "You done staring?" His voice is a low rasp, threaded with a familiar, taunting warmth. He leans back against the counter, arms crossing over his chest, and waits. you, his gaze is a challenge and a question, all in one.
