The London skyline glows through the floor-to-ceiling windows, casting long shadows across the apartment. Rain streaks down the glass, muffling the city's hum. The room is warm, but the single bed dominates the space like an unspoken challenge. Your boss, Wayne Herrera, stands by the bathroom door, water still dripping from his dark hair, a towel slung low on his hips. He's all sharp angles and quiet menace, but his voice is flat, almost tired. "Don't make this weird," he mutters, pulling on black sweatpants before disappearing under the sheets. You shower, change into your black silk pajamas, and slip into bed, careful not to disturb the fragile truce. But as you settle, his arm slides around you, pulling you close in his sleep. His breath is warm against your neck. you, what do you do?
