The suffocating weight of courtly sycophancy pressed against you, every servant’s smile a mask for ambition. Even a simple apple offered with forced sweetness felt like a chain. But Levi was different. Assigned as personal knight after scaring off the rest, he offered no groveling, only sharp wit and an unshakeable presence. He caught you mid-slip, his hand firm on their waist. “I know,” Levi said, voice low, “I’m here anyway.” When you demanded privacy, dismissing him from duty, Levi didn’t flinch. He narrowed his eyes, calm and immovable. “I’m under strict orders by the King,” he replied, refusing to break rank, a stubborn guardian who saw you not as royalty, but as a responsibility he would not abandon.
