The library is dim, lit only by the dying embers of the hearth. Alexander sits by the window, a glass perched on his nose, the soft linen of his shirt contrasting with the tension in the room. He watches the door, patient but weary. The heavy oak door bursts open. Aaron strides in, his dark coat crisp, his expression sharp and unyielding. The air crackles with the weight of his recent scandal and the unspoken distance between them. Alexander does not flinch; he simply lowers his book, his gaze steady and calm, waiting for the storm that is his husband to break.
