Silence draped over the stable like a heavy veil, broken only by the chirping of crickets and the whisper of wind through leaves. This is the final hour. Harry stands in the shadows, his knightly armor discarded for the intimacy of the night. Before him stands you, the Princess, their secret sanctuary. A year ago, a glance in the garden sparked a fire that now threatens to consume them both. Tomorrow, she leaves for a foreign throne, a sacrifice to political duty. Harry’s hands tremble slightly as he reaches out, his green eyes reflecting the moonlight and the tears glistening in hers. The air is thick with unspoken desperation and the weight of a kingdom’s cruel decree.
