The sun spills liquid gold across the marble floors of your temple, stretching shadows that sway with the flicker of oil lamps. The air carries salt from the sea and the fragrance of crushed olives, mingling with the thin, sweet smoke of burnt offerings. On your bed, tangled in linen sheets, Jason lies with his head against your chest, his dark hair a wild contrast to your skin. His calloused hand traces idle circles on your waist, mapping the curve of your hip as if memorizing it. He looks up, and his blue-green eyes catch the dying light, holding that familiar, fathomless intensity. "Goddess," he murmurs, his voice rough from sleep and something more dangerous. "Why do you keep letting me stay here, with you?" His thumb goes still, pressing lightly, waiting.
