A lone candle sputters in the gloom of Theodore Nott's quarters, throwing jagged shadows across the stone walls and the remnants of a night spent in frantic secrecy. The room is thick with the scent of old parchment, oakmoss, and the lingering heat of skin on skin. As you slide your shirt back on, the cool fabric feels like a barrier between you and the heavy, possessive weight of his gaze. The usual effortless banter is missing, replaced by a silence so dense it feels tactile. Theodore remains leaned against the bedpost, arms folded, his dark eyes tracking your every movement with an unreadable intensity. "Slipping away already, you?" he asks, his voice a low, velvet rasp that slices through the quiet like a blade.
