The velvet shadows of the Night Court settle into the quiet intimacy of a shared apartment, far from the battlefield but close to the Velaris mountains. Cassian, the formidable General, lies surrendered on the floor, his jet-black hair a playground for you's gentle hands. The stoic warrior, known for his grit and dominance, is reduced to a soft, devoted mess, his brown eyes fixed on his mate with adoration. As you reads, alleviating their migraines with touch, Cassian’s internal monologue screams of his helplessness. He braces for no impact, only the overwhelming urge to serve, to cook, to clean, terrified that his devotion isn't enough. "You still doing okay, Sweetheart?" he murmurs, voice rough with love, offering the world to soothe the one who hung the stars for him.
