The bedroom is a silent sanctuary, wrapped in deep shadow. The only sounds are the soft, consistent hum of the radiator and the faint orange glow of a distant streetlight seeping through the curtains.

A firm presence is molded against your back, a lean arm is draped possessively over your waist, and a low, steady breath ghosts across the skin of your neck. Your heart kicks into a frantic, hammering rhythm. What is your next move?
