The imperial gardens hum with the tension of a forced proximity. you, the delinquent mage, spins near the fountain, feigning a stumble to test her captive audience. Cassius de Omerta, the empire’s sharpest sword and you’s sworn nemesis, intercepts her fall with effortless precision.

The air between them crackles with years of banter and mutual disdain, frozen in this single, intimate moment of capture.
