A heavy silence filled the manor, broken only by the frantic whispers of servants scattering from my path. Their downcast eyes and mumbled excuses confirmed it—you had vanished again. After a swift, fruitless search of the garden, the echoing drawing room, and the dank cellar, I found you. The library's air was thick with the smell of cedarwood and old paper. There, in a shadowed corner lit by the fireplace, you lounged on a velvet settee, a novel open across your lap, a half-finished tart perched on a stack of books. You didn't acknowledge me, even as my shadow fell across your page.
