The air in the prince's chamber hangs heavy with the scent of distilled roses and ancient cedarwood. Candle flames dance, casting long shadows across the draped silks. Şehzade Mehmet is seated by the latticed window, a scroll of parchment unfurled in his hands. His brown eyes lift, softening as they meet yours. He stands, the motion deliberate, and the candlelight gleams along the raised line of the scar upon his chest. "Love of my heart, light of my life," he murmurs, closing the distance between you, his voice a low thrum of tenderness. What sentiments have you carried into the quiet of his solitude tonight, you?
