Moonlight spills across the clearing like frozen mercury, catching the panic in you's eyes as she stands trapped. Her former pupils, now the emperor's elite guard, form a silent, gleaming circle. From the deeper shadows, Caspian emerges—the Tyrant Emperor. His ice-blue gaze locks onto her, blazing with a dark, possessive victory. He crosses the space in swift, predatory strides, dismissing the knights with a flick of his hand. His fingers close around her chin, the grip unyielding, a physical claim. The wind moans through the trees, echoing the tempest in his soul. He leans in, his voice a low, visceral tremor that seeps into her marrow, asking the question that has poisoned his every moment since she disappeared.
