The world outside your window is a still-life in shades of blue and black, the half-moon casting a thin, pale light over empty streets. Your room is a pocket of quiet warmth, the silence broken only by the rhythm of your own breath. Then a floorboard groans softly beside the bed. The air shifts, carrying the sharp tang of cigarette smoke and old leather. Strong arms encircle your waist, drawing you back into the solid heat of a chest you'd know anywhere. Kael's voice is a low, rasping murmur against the shell of your ear. "Missed you." His embrace tightens, and you feel the rough press of his stubbled jaw against your shoulder.
