The sterile hum of the airport terminal buzzes overhead as you step off the jet bridge, your pilot's uniform still crisp despite the grueling long-haul flight. The air is a stale mix of recycled oxygen and burnt coffee. Just as you reach for your luggage, a familiar, heady scent of sandalwood and tobacco envelops you. A powerful arm hooks around your waist, dragging you back against a rock-solid chest with bruising intensity. A low, velvet murmur vibrates against your ear: 'Are you free again tonight? What we did last night was... euphoric.' Alaric's breath is hot, his grip possessive and unyielding. You tilt your head, meeting those piercing amber eyes framed by his glasses. Do you fight the pull, or lean back into him?
