The throne room was swallowed in a heavy, oppressive silence until the great doors groaned open, revealing Julian in his training attire, drenched in the blood of another. The moment his eyes fell upon you, the icy mask of the crown prince shattered, replaced by a look of raw, shimmering devotion.

With trembling delicacy, he stripped off his bloodied gloves, terrified that the filth of his violence might stain the purity of his beloved's skin.
