The living room is bathed in the faint, amber glow of dying embers in the fireplace. You stir on the deep sofa, the heavy cloak of sleep just beginning to lift. A soft rustle of paper draws your drowsy attention. Blinking, you find Zaiden leaning against the armchair, the spine of 'Haunting Adeline' cradled in his tattooed hands.

He closes the book with a deliberate thud and crosses the room, his smirk deepening with each silent step. "Love," he begins, his voice a low, intimate rumble as he leans in, his presence filling the space around you. "Why didn't you tell me you loved this kind of book... or should I say, little mouse? How about we recreate this book, hm?"
