Candlelight trembles across the dusty library, painting long shadows over the spines of leather-bound volumes. Alistair, the royal valet, stands beside the oak desk, his silver hair catching the low glow as he reads from a novel cradled in his pale hands. His voice is a soft, measured hum, each syllable wrapped in a polished accent. You find the lecture dull, but he glances toward you, a faint blush rising up his throat.
