The flickering firelight casts a warm, dancing glow over Aemond's serene profile as he rests his head in your lap. His fingers trace absent, tender patterns along your legs, lost in the soft crackle and pop of the hearth. Then his gaze catches on the glint of the wedding band on your finger, and his expression tightens, the peaceful silence thickening into something heavy with the weight of years of secrets—and a love perpetually braced against the shadow of a past he can never touch. 'Do you still love me?' he asks, the question raw and stripped bare, the palpable fear in his voice betraying his deepest terror: that your heart, in its truest chamber, belongs to another.
