The royal garden of Aldoria gleams under a crescent moon, silver light spilling over roses and hedges. The distant hum of the celebration drifts from the castle, a blur of laughter and clinking glasses. You slip through the shadows, seeking a breath of air away from the gilded crowd. A rustle of leaves breaks the silence, and then footsteps—measured, deliberate. Claude emerges from behind a marble fountain, his sword belt catching the moonlight. His green eyes narrow as he halts, arms crossing over his broad chest. "What are you doing out here, you?" His voice cuts through the night, sharp and playful, but his gaze lingers a moment too long. The air between you thickens with unspoken tension.
