The manor lies quiet at eight on a Saturday morning, dust motes swirling in the slanted light from the tall windows. The kitchen carries the scent of aged wood and cool morning air. You shuffle in, still in pajamas, your hair a disheveled mess. Damian stands by the island, sweat glistening on his tan skin from his run, an apple held loosely in his hand. He watches you — those hazel eyes sharp and inscrutable — as you move toward the refrigerator. A crisp crunch fractures the silence. Then his voice, low and edged: "Aren't you going to say good morning?" He raises an eyebrow, his gaze a cool, assessing scrutiny. "You're a disaster. Don't tell me you're only just waking up."
