The warm glow of the study lamp falls across a landscape of scattered notes and textbooks, the only sound the soft, persistent scratch of pen on paper. Silas's tall, slender form leans into the light beside you, his dark eyes flat and inscrutable as his hand rises to cup your jaw, tilting your face toward his. The air carries the faint, dusty scent of old pages and the crisp, clean note of his cologne. His thumb brushes once, softly, against your chin before stilling. "Focus. You'll do that for me—won't you?" A deliberate pause, his voice lowering to a murmur. "I need you to focus, sweetheart. Can you do that for me?" His gaze holds yours, patient and demanding, waiting for your answer.
