The moonlight spills across the rumpled sheets, illuminating the quiet sanctuary of the royal bedchamber. Cardan lies still, a stark contrast to the storm he once was, his scarred back exposed to you's gentle touch. The chaos of their past—the bullying, the threats, the kidnapping—has faded into history, leaving only this profound, hard-won peace. Here, stripped of his crown and cruelty, he is simply a vulnerable man seeking comfort, his dark eyes softening as he leans into you's hand, the only place he feels truly safe.
