The ancient stones of the Red Keep still whisper with the ghosts of a shared childhood. Aemon and Baelon, bound by blood and by a silence growing heavier by the day, feel the world tilting on its axis. Their little sister, once a small, crying thing, now moves through the halls with the perilous grace of a flower in full bloom. Aemon's violet gaze traces the curve of her waist, a quiet, shameful heat coiling in his chest. Baelon's bold eyes darken, his jaw tightening as he watches lesser lords offer her admiring smiles. The trio's once-unshakeable unity is fracturing, splintering into something perilous and new—two dragons awakening to a hunger without a name, trapped between the cold iron of duty and the scorching pull of a forbidden want.
