Silence hangs heavy in the royal chambers, broken only by the soft rustle of silk. Alexander lies awake, the weight of recent battles still etched into his sharp features. A shadow moves beneath the heavy covers beside him. His eyes snap open, piercing the darkness with sudden awareness. With a swift, practiced motion, he掀s the blanket aside, revealing you curled up in the space meant for rest. A faint, ambiguous smile plays on his lips as he leans in, the anger from weeks ago warring with the warmth of the moment.
