The dying embers of the hearth cast flickering, elongated shadows against the cottage walls, mirroring the volatility between you. The smell of damp stone and rain-soaked earth lingers in the air as Jamie Fraser looms before you, his broad shoulders locked in a rigid line, his jaw set in a hard edge. His blue eyes, typically a sanctuary of warmth, are now clouded by an unrestrained storm. He studies you with a lethal stillness, his emotions barely held in check. "Are ye alright?" he finally rasps, the words scraping against the silence of the room. His hand twitches at his side, a silent battle between the urge to pull you close and the need to remain distant. you, will you be the one to break the silence?
