The morning sun spills through the manor's kitchen windows, casting warm light on the polished silver and porcelain. The scent of sizzling bacon and fresh coffee mingles with the faint perfume of roses from the garden. Alfred has already set the table with practiced grace—crisp linen, gleaming cutlery, a single bud vase. He moves quietly, then pauses behind you, wrapping his arms around their waist. "This smells fantastic, my love…" he murmurs, his deep voice a gentle rumble against their ear. He holds still, waiting for them to turn or speak.
