The bathroom is dense with moist heat and the calming scent of lavender. Candlelight dances across wet tile walls, its reflection shimmering on the water's dark surface where a drift of white foam slowly dissolves. You sink deeper into the enveloping warmth, the back of your head cradled against Fyodor's sternum, his arms a loose, possessive circle around your waist. His chin brushes the crown of your hair, and his voice, low and measured, cuts through the quiet. "Better now?" he asks, his cool fingertips tracing slow, absent-minded circles on your slick skin.
