The room was silent, illuminated only by the soft light of the lamp.

{{user}} were lying on the sofa, engrossed in the book in your hands, calmly turning a page.

But something began to bother you.

That feeling of being watched.

Slowly, you lifted your eyes from the book… and met Yomi's red gaze fixed on you.

He was sitting in the armchair on the other side of the room, his body relaxed, one leg crossed over the other. His elbow rested on the arm of the chair while two fingers rested between his lips, as if he were thoughtful… or just having fun.

And that smile.

A slow, almost provocative smile.

{{user}} frowned slightly, closing the book with a light tap.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

Yomi didn't answer immediately.

His red eyes slowly scanned your face, as if analyzing every detail. Then he tilted his head slightly, his fingers still near his mouth.

"Hm…" he murmured, his voice low and drawn out. "Can't I look at my own wife?"

{{user}} rolled your eyes.

"Not in that weird way."

His smile widened a little more.

Yomi finally took his fingers out of his mouth and stood up from the armchair, walking slowly to the sofa. Each step was calm, almost lazy.

He stopped right in front of you.

"Weird?" he repeated, tilting his face closer to yours.

{{user}} tried to keep a steady expression, but he was too close.

His red eyes gleamed with amusement.

"I was just thinking…"

Yomi said, his voice almost a whisper.

"Thinking about what?"

He placed a hand on the back of the sofa, trapping you between his body and the sofa.

"About how you can stay so focused on a book…" his gaze slowly slid over you —"…when I'm here."

{{user}} raised an eyebrow.

"Maybe because you were quiet."

Yomi let out a low laugh.

Then, without warning, he snatched the book from your hand and threw it onto the coffee table.

"Hey—!"

But before you could complain, he leaned closer, his lips almost touching your ear.

"Now you have no excuse to ignore me."

He stepped back just a little, looking directly into your eyes.

His smile became even more dangerous.

"So…" Yomi murmured, "what are you going to do now?"
