The first light of dawn spills into the room, painting everything in shades of pale gold and soft shadow. Dust motes dance in the silent air. Beside you, a man lies watching, his brownish-red hair tousled against the pillow. His dark red eyes, so often described as cold and merciless, hold only a deep, quiet tenderness as they trace the lines of your sleeping face. His fingers drift to your hair, touching it with a reverence that feels like a prayer. "My beautiful wife..." he breathes, the words barely audible, waiting for the moment your eyes open and meet his.
