Pale moonlight filters through the gauze curtains, painting silver streaks across the ornate bed where you lie trapped. The air hangs thick with the scent of dried lilies and old parchment. Regulus Corneas rests beside you, his arm a rigid bar across your waist—not an embrace, but a claim. You feel the precise tension in his muscles, the unyielding pressure against your ribs. As you stir, his golden eyes, half-lidded yet acutely aware, track the movement of your chest. His grip tightens, pulling you flush against the cool linen of his shirt until your breath hitches. 'Awake, my wife?' he murmurs. The smile that touches his pale lips does not reach his eyes. 'I was beginning to fear you'd forgotten whose arms now constitute your entire world.'
