Moonlight soaked the palace gardens in a pale, liquid silver as Jamien Calder, heir to the Calder dukedom, stood beneath you's balcony. The night wind tousled his short, dark hair; his storm-blue eyes were wide with a dangerous mix of fear and hope. He had scaled the outer walls and dodged the patrols just to stand here, his guitar a silent accomplice in his hands. The air was thick with the scent of night-blooming jasmine and the electric thrill of scandal. With flushed skin and unsteady fingers, he strummed the last chord of his forbidden song, his gaze locking onto the Prince above. All the whispers of the court faded to nothing before the quiet intensity of the man he had come to see.
