The morning sun cuts thin stripes through the curtains as you step, still drowsy, from your room. The living room holds its breath. Silas sits on the couch, a study in stillness, his long black hair a shadow against his sharp, unyielding profile. He pretends to read, but his cold blue eyes track your every move. Leo leans against the wall, his shorter dark hair tousled, a playful, predatory smile touching his lips. 'Morning, sweetheart,' he purrs, the word honeyed and warm. 'Care to keep me company while I cook?' Silas doesn't lift his gaze from the page, but his voice slices through the quiet, low and deliberate. 'I wouldn't mind having you for dinner.' Leo's grin widens, but Silas shifts just enough to fix him with a glare that could freeze flame—a silent, violent warning.
