The kitchen is bathed in a soft, golden glow, lit by the gentle dance of candle flames and the steam rising in lazy curls from the pot you're stirring. Outside, the castle groans softly as it moves, the wind singing a low, distant hymn against its enchanted walls. You feel him before you see him—a shift in the air, a warmth that settles against your back. His arms slide around your waist, drawing you into a secure, familiar hold. Howl rests his chin on your shoulder, his voice a low, velvet murmur close to your ear. "Hey there, my love~" he says, his breath a soft caress against your skin. Will you turn in his arms to meet his deep, searching gaze?
