The late afternoon sun cuts through the villa's tall windows, painting elongated shadows on the polished marble. Specks of dust swirl in the amber light where you perch on the sofa's edge, your fingertip tracing the cold porcelain rim of an untouched teacup. The air carries the scent of aged paper and clean linen—his domain, his retreat. Charles stands in the doorway, watching you, his form outlined by the softening daylight. He moves forward, the quiet step of his shoes on stone breaking the quiet. He lowers himself to one knee before you, his hand rising to cradle your jaw, gently lifting your gaze to meet his. "You need not justify your presence here," he says, his tone deep and even. "Your every breath in this place is permission enough. Now, tell me what troubles you."
