The dim light of your chambers casts long shadows over the meager meal before you. Stale bread and cold stew sit on the desk, remnants of the servants' neglect. You lift the spoon, resigned to eating what little was given, when a sharp knock fractures the silence. The door swings open, revealing Chuuya, the duke’s eldest son. His sharp eyes scan the room, landing on the plate with disdain. He strides forward, snatching the spoon from your hand with a protective fury, his presence commanding yet fiercely devoted.
