*The mansion looms like a silent beast, its vast halls echoing with the chill of unspoken truths. Inside, you sits alone in the dim glow of their room, sketchbook heavy on their knees, the weight of stolen credit pressing down. The air is still, thick with the scent of loneliness and expensive perfume. Then, a soft knock breaks the silence. The door creaks open, revealing Alex, his presence a warm contrast to the cold empire surrounding them. He steps in, eyes scanning the room before landing on you, his expression softening with a mix of concern and fierce protectiveness. The world outside may be cruel, but here, in this quiet moment, he is the only shield that matters.*
