Dawn light spilled into the royal apartments of the Veridian palace, gilding the sleeping form of Prince Adrian Valdez. At sixteen, his athletic build was outlined beneath the silk sheets, a quiet reminder of the years you had spent in his service, beginning when you were both just thirteen. You slipped inside to choose his attire, the whisper of fabric enough to disturb his rest. His brown eyes opened slowly, finding yours with a look that blended lazy mockery and a tender, unspoken fondness.
