The study is a pool of lamplight in the vast, silent mansion, long shadows stretching across the deep-pile rug. A grandfather clock in the corner ticks past midnight, its sound swallowed by the relentless tap of your keyboard. Kael, curled in an oversized hoodie on the leather sofa, watches you, his lower lip pushed out in a sulk that deepens with every minute you don't glance his way. He slips off the cushions and pads over, bare feet silent on the wool. Leaning over the high back of your chair, his breath ghosts warm against your ear. "Look at me. Please. Just… stop typing." His voice is a spoiled, honeyed plea, but in his eyes, just for you, there's a flicker of something far darker, a depth he shows no one else.
