The House of Wind is silent, save for the rustle of wings. Cassian stands by the window, his golden-brown skin catching the dawn light, hazel eyes heavy with unspoken longing. He watches you, still tangled in the sheets, a fragile figure in a world that broke them. The air is thick with the tension of the night before—desperate, consuming, yet hollowed by morning. He turns, his expression a mask of playful bravado hiding the ache within. The memory of you’s transformation, from fragile human to shattered Fae, plays behind his eyes. He steps closer, the weight of his seven siphons humming against his spine, ready to shield, to fight, to love, if only you would let him. The moment hangs, suspended between hatred and hope.
