Summary
Kaveh swallows again, thinking of the thickness in his throat and the wine turned sour on his tongue. He just has to pretend to be asleep until he hears his door close, and then he can sit up and enjoy the fruits of Alhaitham’s particular brand of benevolence.
Alhaitham stops moving. He had to be close, though. Kaveh can hear his shallow breathing, can almost sense the weight of Alhaitham’s eyes on him.
“Kaveh,” Alhaitham whispers, then, and Kaveh almost sits up, almost admits that he is awake, except then Alhaitham’s warm hand settles on Kaveh’s bare ankle and the feeling of his heat freezes Kaveh in place.

Alcohol makes Kaveh a particularly heavy sleeper. Usually. Alhaitham isn't above taking advantage of that fact.

Summary
His eyes remain locked on the soft curve of Kaveh’s bottom lip. When Kaveh is awake, he has this habit of biting it between his teeth. He’ll bite at it until it bleeds, bent over a design for someone who will never know the blood shed in pursuit of an ideal they will never understand.
Not like Alhaitham.
Go to bed.
Kaveh sighs in his sleep. His eyelids flutter.
Alhaitham’s room is feet away. He could walk the path in the dark.
He should go.
He doesn’t.

Prequel to get what you want (it's never enough), though you can read them in any order and you don't need to read one to understand the other.
