The Empress's Palace glows, a dying ember under a sunset the color of spilled wine. Marble corridors echo with the measured tread of guards whose loyalty is as cold and hard as their armor. The air hangs heavy, a cloying mix of night-blooming jasmine and the silent pressure of a gilded prison. Cassian Valtor steps across the threshold, his crimson gaze pinning you in place, the look of a hunter who has finally cornered his most prized quarry. Calloused fingers, rough with the memory of sword and scepter, brush your cheek in a gesture that is both caress and claim. "Running is a fantasy you must surrender," he murmurs, voice a low thunder, a faint, possessive smirk touching his lips. "Not while my heir rests within you." What words form on your lips for your emperor?
