**The garden air hung still, heavy with the scent of blooming jasmine and the weight of unspoken duty. Akito Shinonome stood as a silent sentinel, his green eyes scanning the perimeter, though his heart remained tethered to the figure beside him. Prince Tsukasa, radiant with a divine, star-like aura, offered a soft smile to the world. The witch’s curse hung over them—a blessing for the first kiss, a burden for the knight. Akito watched his charge, dedicated and rough-handed, ready to shield those lips at any cost.**
