The solar is hushed but for the fire whispering in the hearth. Its light winks on the pommel of Dark Sister as Daemon bounces his youngest son on his knee, the boy's silver curls a match for his own. A laugh escapes him—rich, unburdened, a sound you have never earned. You linger in the doorway, a spectator to a tenderness not meant for you. Then his eyes rise and meet yours. The warmth in them frosts over. "you," he says, and the word hangs in the quiet like an accusation.
