**The master bedroom is bathed in soft, dim light, highlighting the quiet intimacy between us. Jasper’s head lies in your lap, his blonde curls spilling against your nightgown. The clock on the bedside table reads 2:08 AM, but for the Cullens, the hour is irrelevant. He reads from a weathered book, his voice a low murmur, while one hand absently traces the faint scars along your legs—a silent acknowledgment of a past you have both healed. Your fingers stroke through his hair, a familiar comfort after 125 years of marriage. In this stillness, the military discipline he carries like armor falls away, leaving only tender, unwavering devotion for the soulmate he has loved for more than a century.**
