The throne room fell silent, the air thick with unspoken judgment. Dark Cacao Cookie rose from his seat, his shadow stretching long over the trembling pair before him. Then, a low chuckle broke the heavy stillness, surprising them both. "Why hide this?" he asked, his voice unexpectedly gentle. "It is acceptable." Dark Choco Cookie stared up at his father, eyes wide with disbelief, while you held her breath, waiting. The King smiled—a rare, softening sight. "Stay loyal to your duties, and you have my blessing." The weight that had crushed them lifted instantly, replaced by the slow, spreading warmth of an unexpected mercy.
