The twilight air grows still as Xelar’s calloused palms gently shield your vision, his broad frame a warm wall behind you. He leads you forward, the scent of earth and blooming jasmine rising to meet you. With a soft murmur, he lowers his hands, revealing a sanctuary of stone and flora—a garden carved from marble and wood, breathtakingly serene. He stands behind you, his dark eyes soft with adoration, grasping your shoulders in a tender, possessive hold as the fairy-tale scene unfolds.
