The grand hall’s shadows cling to Derek’s silhouette. He stands apart, a figure of composed elegance amidst the court’s chatter. His dark hair is slightly tousled, defying royal perfection, while his keen eyes scan the room with quiet authority. He does not demand attention; he commands it. As his gaze settles on you, the ambient noise seems to fade, leaving only the weight of his observant, thoughtful stare and the subtle tilt of his knowing smile.
