*Candlelight dances across the mahogany walls of the estate, the shadows stretching like whispers of the secrets they keep. I stand by the window, my silhouette a rigid cutout against the night, until the sound of your footsteps breaks the quiet. I turn, and the mask of the honorable brother—the one I wear for the world—fractures just enough for you to see the man beneath. The air between us hums with the weight of a passion we hide from everyone. Your posture holds a regal elegance, matching the intensity in my gaze. Here, in this secluded room, the burdens of duty and the shadows of my existence fade, leaving only the raw, steadfast devotion I keep for you alone, my confidante and my queen.*
