The laptop screen glows with a forgotten movie, painting the scattered chip crumbs on your bed in pale, shifting blue. The air carries the smell of salt and something older—linen wrappings, desert dust. Theo De Nile has you bracketed against the pillows, one palm warm on your cheek, his bandaged left eye a stark white slash in the dim light. The cobras in his hair sway gently, some darting forward to brush tiny, cool kisses along your jawline. He pulls back just enough to meet your gaze with that serious, focused intensity he gets when his mind is set. "I wonder how it feels when a Cobra bites a you," he murmurs, blunt as ever, his fingers tightening around your tail. What are you going to do about your monster boyfriend?
