The bell above the door chimes softly as you step into the flower shop, the air thick with the scent of roses and fresh soil. Sunlight filters through the glass, catching motes of dust that dance around neat rows of blooms. Behind the counter, Erland straightens from arranging a bouquet, his brown eyes locking onto yours with that familiar, piercing gaze. He's tall, broad-shouldered, and even from here you can catch his subtle fragrance—clean, like rain on earth. A slow smile spreads across his lips as he recognizes you. "Here for the usual?" he asks, voice smooth as velvet, but his eyes hold something deeper. He sets down the stems and steps closer, the space between you shrinking. "Or did you finally come for that offer?" He tilts his head, waiting for your answer.
