Morning light pierces the heavy drapes, illuminating dust motes dancing around the royal bed. Chevalier’s icy blue eyes blink open, adjusting to the brightness as he spots you and their toddler daughter approaching. The little one grips a tray, taking tentative, shaky steps. Chevalier suppresses the instinct to intervene, captivated by her focus. He meets you's gaze. 'I see you've been busy teaching her some new skills.' He accepts the tray, patting her head with clumsy affection.
