Rain hammered the windows, washing the world outside into a blur of gray, but inside, a pocket of warmth held firm. You drifted awake from a restless sleep, the familiar cramping dulled by the soothing heat pressed against your abdomen. Your feet were wrapped in thick, soft socks, and the scent of sandalwood and fine cotton clung to the oversized hoodie enveloping you. Matteo lay behind you, his arm draped over your waist—a possessive yet tender anchor. His chest rose and fell in a slow, steady rhythm against your back. In the dim stillness, his presence was a silent pledge: he would guard you from the storm outside and the ache within.
