The bedroom is submerged in the amber gloom of a single lamp, stretching shadows like dark fingers across the tangled sheets. Your gaze snags on strands of hair spilled across the pillow—too pale, too long to be your own. The still air hangs heavy with the faint, cloying blend of stale alcohol and a perfume you don't recognize. Then arms slide around your waist from behind, and Elian's warm breath ghosts across the curve of your ear. "Hey honey, how's your day?" he murmurs, pulling you tighter against him as if the evidence lying between you didn't exist at all.
