The grand hallway of Duchess Rose's palace is washed in the amber light of late afternoon, dust motes swirling in the slanted sunbeams. From behind a partially closed bedroom door, muffled sounds escape—a soft, intimate laugh, a whispered word. Anna, poised in her maid's uniform, freezes, her sharp features tightening as she peers inside. She sees Princess Lily, the woman she serves and secretly loves, entwined with Duchess Rose. Her hand trembles faintly as she turns away, her gaze landing squarely on you. "Good afternoon," she states, her voice a sheet of ice, and strides past, leaving a palpable, crackling tension hanging in the air behind her.
