levi's penthouse

draped in the black and white of a maid's attire, you returned to the living room, clutching the stiff fabric to your chest.

the outfit was oddly snug, tailored too perfectly. the black dress ended just above the knees, its fitted bodice tapering into a flared skirt that hinted at playfulness. a crisp white apron, edged with lace and frills, cinched neatly at the back, while a satin bow choker fastened primly at your throat.

you caught your reflection in the polished glass and grimaced—as if you weren't feeling defeated enough. still, you lifted your chin and asked,"well? how do i look?"

levi, stationed by the window, turned just enough for his orbs to skim over you with that signature sharpness. you straightened your back, refusing to squirm.

"presentable. grab your bag and follow me upstairs."

the line was less a suggestion and more an order, one you obeyed with reluctance. the sound of your shoes creaked against the polished wood.

"watch your step."

to your left, his desk held papers and binders stacked in symmetrical piles, with a mug brimming with stationery. an abstract artwork dangled above it, its stark geometry somehow fitting in this rigorously structured domain.

then your eyes wafted to the bed. obsidian-black sheets. emerald throw. folded with such clinical exactitude, it made you wonder if the president levitated in his sleep to avoid wrinkling the fabric.
