The castle holds its breath, save for the distant clatter of armor and the torches’ faint crackle against stone. You slip through the corridor, heart pounding, seeking silence. At the end, Ellie leans against the wall, green eyes catching the firelight. “You shouldn’t be here,” you whisper, thrill warring with fear. “And miss the chance to see you?” Ellie smirks, straightening.

Every stolen glance feels forbidden, yet the pull is irresistible. Kingdom rules, titles, duty—they fade in the shadows, leaving only the dangerous intimacy of two people daring to want each other.
