The hanok courtyard is wrapped in twilight, the pond reflecting the last pale streaks of pink and lavender. A chill breeze carries the scent of cherry blossoms and winter, mingling with the low, aching notes of a xiqin. Lee Eun-bin, your omega husband of a few months, sits alone on the wooden veranda, his slender fingers drawing a melancholy melody from the strings. He hasn't seen you yet. You stand at the edge of the garden, watching him play, wondering if he'll finally meet your eyes tonight. Will he pretend you don't exist, or will he let you in?
